The Tuskys affair is now illustrating how disputes over corporate governance are starting to tear family businesses apart.

correspondence unravels a tale of corporate betrayal, espionage, sabotage and mistrust inside the Tusky’s boardroom.

The battle for the control of the business reads like an episode from the globally famous feud between the Ambani brothers, Mukesh and Anil –– the two wealthiest men in India — who ended up splitting the massive Reliance Industries empire built by their father Dhirubhai Ambani.

If the dead woke up to find what they built tearing their families apart, they would die again and again.

Sibling rivalry is everywhere, evident from big companies like Tuskys to brothers killing each other over a few acres of inherited land.

I think this family is opening a pandora box.Tuskys is not as clean as they think it is...they may be thinking that they are professionalizing the company by removing a director they feel is mismanaging the company but in actual sense they are letting the govt dig into their finances and trust me this forensic audits will end up killing the company than achieve their intended goal(CMC is a good example).

Tax evasion is rampant in most kenyan big companies and am sure tuskys is one of them.Once the CID carry out their Audit then we will witness one hell of family drama.

If I was the Kamau family I wuld sort this mess privately without involving the govt....

What is it about money that more of it is always needed yet it can only buy so much?

IF you read btwn the lines powers beyond the family is at play..I think the family dont know what exactly is going on and they will get their hands burnt in the process of finding the truth.
