What you need to know:

  • Petitioner says that despite assertion that the appointment was made pursuant to the recommendation of the Public Service Commission, there was no iota of evidence of PSC’s involvement in the process.

The High Court has blocked Bruno Oguda Obodha from assuming the position of managing director at East African Portland Cement (EAPCC), following his recent appointment by President William Ruto.

Justice Bahati Mwamuye on Friday blocked Mr Obodha from assuming the post following a petition by Ms Caroline Wambui Mwangi, who argued that the process and criteria triggering his nomination on December 20, 2024, was shrouded in mystery and not accountable to the public.
