The Employment and Labour Relations Court has upheld a decision by Safaricom Plc to dismiss its former Head of Regional Expansion, Brian Njoroge Wamatu, over allegations that he improperly accessed and shared confidential company and customer information.

The court ruled that Safaricom had both a valid reason and followed a fair disciplinary process before dismissing the employee in June 2019 in a dispute arising from allegations of unauthorised access to confidential subscriber information.
