Restructuring more often that not refers to running the organization in the most profitable manner,However,they cannot be achieved when you retain the same incompetent managers who made decisions when profits were dwiddling and when you want to make more profit !

I dont think its a job cut when you are redeployed to a junior position you have the alternative of eating the humble pie or quiting I think these senior manager chose the latter.

The salary absence of a few fired bosses can't plug the hole of the revenue drops c/o tariff wars. I wouldn't kid myself even for a second!!

i agree, safcom will hv 2 do more to contain costs. the whole restructuring was all about improving efficiency n avoiding incomed leakage thro sm big tym frauds, thats why finance n procurement were merged 4 ease of audit n accountability.
at 5 bob by end march?, that nt possible considerin they will announcin their results around that same time, i expect a furthur drop

Safcom made 19.3 cts in first half. Assume that this drops to 60% in second half. Full Year EPS will then be 31 cts. Lower growth in future should result in lower PE for the Co. - not more than 12. Current price is too high!

apparently someone is facing charges for threatening MJ after an under hand deal went sour.

what am wondering could his claims that MJ was involved in a fuel scandal in safaricom be True also he claims there has been corruption in the tendering process of non core services like security,gym and cleaning services.
