[kictanet] Wangusi blocked from resuming office

[Barrack Otieno]

We condemn this actions considering the fact that a number of members on
the CA board are colleagues in the industry. I also read in the media that
there are quite a number of staff that are in office by order of the
courts, why the double standards. Lastly I am also perplexed by the loud
silence by a number of industry associations and lobby groups that have
been at the fore front of championing corporate governance and condemning
such actions. Chikungunya is spreading at an alarming rate.
