National Oil CEO’s controversial term comes to an end

The controversial tenure of National Oil Corporation of Kenya (Nock) chief executive Sumayya Hassan-Athmani has come to an end with the appointment of an acting officer to take over her position.

Ms Hassan-Athmani leaves amid an ongoing investigation into the State-owned oil marketer’s finances. She was in early February suspended from office but reinstated a few days later pending conclusion of investigations occasioned by a reported Sh270 million loss for the six months to December.
