Tanzanian conglomerate Amsons Group yesterday took possession of the first batch of Bamburi Cement shares worth Sh8.9 billion, as it pushes for a full buyout of the Nairobi bourse listed company.
The Bamburi counter saw 137.06 million shares --equivalent to 38 percent of the company’s 362.9 million issued shares-- change hands yesterday at the Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE) in block trades that were priced at Sh65 each.
