The long-serving CEO of @KTDATea Lerionka Tiampati and five other top officials have been sent on compulsory leave by the agency’s new board. - @BD_Africa
The board’s new chair David Ichocho said the six have been sent on a three-month leave to allow investigations on their conduct.
The decision was reached on Monday during the new board’s first meeting held at the agency’s headquarters amid heavy police presence on fears that the outgoing directors would interrupt the meeting.
Other members who have been sent on leave include the company secretary John Omanga, managing director Alfred Njagi, finance and strategy director Benson Ngari and David Mbugua, general manager ICT.
In a separate statement, the outgoing board dismissed the decision of Mr Ichocho saying they have no mandate to undertake any function at the agency.
The new board was inaugurated last week by Agriculture CS Peter Munya.
The board said forensic audit of the operational and financial system will be undertaken in due course and that procurement contracts will be reviewed to ascertain value for money and determine if the services and goods were obtained within the market benchmarks.

A deputy director at @KeRRA_Ke bought the bulk of 35 apartments in the four months to September 2019 when Kenya withdrew the old Sh1,000 banknote to tackle illicit financial flows. - @BD_Africa
The Assets Recovery Agency (ARA) has raised the red flag that the apartments worth Sh374.5 million and Sh94 million in bank accounts linked to Margaret Wanja Muthui were the products of illicit deals, including kickbacks from road contractors.
The ARA successfully applied to court for freeze of the assets with the aim of forfeiting them to the State, arguing that her salary cannot support the purchase of the multimillion-shilling properties within weeks.

Any football fan in Nairobi’s Eastland’s knows that on match days, scaling the City Stadium walls or standing on the Footbridge outside the stadium is one way they have avoided paying for a ticket. - Oscar for @NationAfrica
Every football fan also knows a former player who is languishing in abject poverty having failed to eke out a living for the decades they poured their lives into the game without commensurate pay.
It is hard to connect the dots but when viewers do not pay, talent goes unrewarded, the future of the beautiful game becomes bleak.
