Damning dossier by KPMG
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

Corruption permeates every sector of this nation.. I doubt that our honourable MPs are immune to this disease.. There is no hope even here.. The report will be thrown out.

Parliament is not needed here. Ni kimbelembele tu!!

KPMG were called in by Bob Collymore and luckily he looks like an upright and straight forward fellow. No one had raised any issue - outside of Safaricom - before he called them. Some MPs are just looking for a pay day given the number of times we have heard of instances money changes hands so that reports can be authored in a certain way.

Safaricom has internal mechanisms and every year a number of employees are fired because of inappropriate dealings. The only difference here is that top fellows have been implicated. Let's see if the same rules are applied.

But one thing I know about Safaricom - and you can take this to the Bank - they are very serious on corporate governance and go out of their way to enforce it. That is why this manenos have been unearthed with absolutely no external pressure.

This whole story is a bit disturbing. But my issue is this ; Under what powers conferred by statute or constitution does parliament have in order to 'purport' to conduct a probe on the affairs. Could it be because GOK has shares in parliament? Appears far-fetched. parliament only has over-sight powers over state bodies. Safaricom is not a state body, rather it is a public company.

Who cares if there is corruption in Safaricom? Especially parliament? What is their interest in this? Safaricom as a going concern has the ability to solve its own issues. Why is there public interference? Worst of all coming from the same parliament that is unable to pass a simple gender bill.

A ka loose 10 million like this for a couple of committee members and the report says everything is okay. How many people have been cleared by these committees. Even the devil can be cleared of any wrong doing by these committees if he remembers to carry a huge briefcase!

The sad part @enyands is that there will be absolutely no training required!!! Both the government and the opposition are full of blood suckling vampires. Shameless thieves of public money and resources!!! BOTH sides.

And even the opposition are currently stealing together with the government. Take the National Youth money. Both sides were on the take. MPigs on both sides were in the eating committee!!!

The bypass costing a billion per kilometre, have you heard a single opposition figure utter a word or question the costing?? Wanna hazard a guess why???

Kenyans will be liberated when they stop recycling politicians. The day they will have the mindset to listen to a "random Kenyan" and vote for him if his track record (elsewhere) and policies are good, is the same day they will be liberated!!!

Too little information to conclude so. Consider the possibility of scapegoating. Theyll let their guard down after a while na unga utamwagika tena.

Tombleson was maybe having home sickness.
He is feeling happy to be back home.He's done a good job having tripled safaricom profits for the duration he was here.
Now let's see what the new CFO has in store.
