The committee chaired by by Kajiado Senator Lenku Ole Kanar Seki put the executive on the spot to explain why the brewer has gone on a spree offloading the company’s assets and drastically reducing its workforce. The committee is probing a petition that alleges a possible hostile takeover of the East African Breweries Limited.
