A freelance journalist has sued the Cooperative Bank of Kenya accusing senior managers of hoarding some of the bank's shares.

In a public interest suit, Kenneth Gitobu says he is a shareholder of the bank but questions why class A shares, which he claims constitute 65 percent of the Bank's shareholding, are never traded at the Nairobi Securities Exchange. The journalist now wants the court to order the class A shares to be traded and the alleged owners compelled to compensate other shareholders for 'losses' incurred since the 2008 initial public offer.

Gitobu has sued the CEO Gideon Muriuki, Stanley Muchiri among others. He says that he sought an explanation from Muriuki on the issue of Class A shares and was allegedly informed that the said shares failed to raise enough capital for the expansion of the bank.

Do you think the existing shareholders would get a piece of this cake? If so, wouldn't this catapult the share price?

Class A shareholders are the saccos and they form under the umbrella co-operative alliance.
The saccos initially signed an agreement with coop bank not to sell their shares within the first three years after listing.
When the three years lapsed they signed again an agreement not to sell their shares in the banks for the next 5 years.
This are the anchor shareholders of the bank

Nothing here. Cooperatives own shares they are not trading so what is wrong with that. Infact wanjiku should thank them for not flooding the market.

This thing of IPO share split and how senior managers acquired shares in co-op will haunt Gideon to his grave. Haita isha vizuri. Mutu ataumia.
