Billionaire businessman Ngugi Kiuna is seeking the termination of the Carbacid Investments’ buyout of BOC Kenya after filing an objection to the deal at the Capital Markets Tribunal citing undervaluation.

Mr Kiuna, a former BOC Kenya chairman, said the Capital Markets Authority (CMA) erred in approving the takeover by ignoring the undervaluation of BOC besides disregarding the protection of interests of minority shareholders.

The tycoon, who holds 1.4 million BOC shares equivalent to a 7.6 percent stake, filed the appeal on March 1, 2021.

Any idea if there are any activist investors pushing back on BOC takeover? I'm in BOC; the idea of being forced out when the share is at its lowest feels like daylight robbery.
I read in BD that Ngugi Kiuna amekataa.


Thanks. Perhaps there is hope of getting a better offer then, or torpedo the takeover.

When Unga did the same, I caved in, though I would have preferred to hang on. I had no idea others would successfully resist the buyout.
Unga is now at 30 after 18 months so you did much better than me. Laughing out loudly Linde is selling its shares to CARB. There is the risk of delisting after CARB gets 75%.


Useful lesson, thanks. The court case buys me more time, but should Mr Kiuna loose, I suppose it's wiser to cut losses and take the offer.
