Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE) #ticker:NSE investors yesterday lost Sh11.44 billion as the cloud of political uncertainty that has persisted since the September 1 nullification of the presidential election intensified with news that electoral agency commissioner Roselyn Akombe had resigned and fled the country.
