A judge has backed a decision by Safaricom to sack a regional sales manager who was implicated in a multi-million money laundering scandal by the State’s Assets Recovery Agency (ARA) three years ago.
Justice Jemima Wanza Keli of the Employment and Labour Relations Court ruled that the dismissal of Esther Wagio Njunge from employment at Safaricom was justified, lawful, and fair. Consequently, the court said she is not entitled to reinstatement nor the alternative order of compensation.
