"Centum’s chief executive James Mworia has acquired four million shares worth Sh207.4 million in the investment company, breaking into the list of the firm’s top 10 shareholders." The figures match. It helps when the CEO invests in the company. I would want to believe that at his age, he falls into the category of leaders who would want to leave a legacy of a successful organisation... His shares now worth about 187M (4M*43sh). So what happens when you con guys off 1B?Plus he could easily exit.The books don't make sense!They live off revaluation gains! His shares are now worth Sh231.6 million and he says he spent a cumulative Sh315 million of his bonus payments over the years on buying the firm's stock. See http://www.businessdaily...em-0-2q12v2/index.html. That is not an easy position to unload. His interests and the shareholders' seem aligned to me.

As it stands, he is buying shares on the open market. If he were receiving shares as a bonus instead, the company would have to create new shares, thereby diluting the holdings of existing shareholders. It would essentially be a bonus issue that ordinary shareholders couldn't participate in. As for alignment, if you look at the annual report, the bonuses are tied to continued wealth creation and partially deferred. If they don't continue to perform, they don't get some of their money. I don't have a problem with the structure.

There is nothing extra ordinary James Mworia has done. I'm sure some Wazuans if given the job would have done much better and rewarded shareholders handsomely. As someone said what is being done is transferring money from one side to another with creative and fake accounting being done on the books. Wealth is built through a relatively simple equation Wealth=Income + Investments - Lifestyle

Such appointment does not add value to Centum stock. John 5:17 But Jesus replied, “My Father is always working, and so am I.”

How many have gotten rich as an enemy of Government? How many have gotten rich as a friend of Government? Who will win next year (regardless of who you want)? Who is a friend of those who will win and which company is he fronting? Read the tea leaves, regardless of your scruples. We aren't here for moral principles. We are here to make money. Wish it was otherwise, but it is not.
