Mixing the old and the new, i had a hunch when i exited this counter in 2006 that the chemistry would not last. Frank Ireri has really played Gatabaki. Plucked from BBK to head a moribund HF and now Adan Mohammed wants to replace Naftali Mogere. Very interesting!

Adan cant replace Mogere. As far as I know Mogere was there on behalf of NSSF, so NSSF is still entitled to the seat. Unless NSSF nominate Adan...

I think Adan is the Chairman of the NSSF Board of Trustees??

There is Adan 'Barclays' Mohamed and Adan 'NSSF' Mohamed. Which Adan are you referring to?

Adan Mohammed NSSF, why did NSSF choose him and not the managing trustee or did he nominate himself?
HF needs independent directors who are not there to cater to the shareholder interests. Remember what happened to Uchumi when one director bulldozed the entire board. The intrigue is not good for a listed company.

I would do the same if I injected the very much required capital that HF had sought for quite sometime...

Looks like the boardroom war outcome was taken positively by investors. The counter is heading north. Have their books closed?

BBI will solve it

Thats true. It has now emerged that equity wants to use HF as a short cut to buying National bank through NSSF, this can only be interpreted as good news. Investors wouldnt care much who is moved from the board for as long as the company performs.

@luxel - Please explain how buying HFCK helps Equity buy NBK?
