Jimba Credit – The same path as Rural Urban… it closed up shop coz it was broke. The firm was taken over by the government & merged into Consolidated Bank…

KPLC among other firms are now ’shareholders’ of Consolidated Bank courtesy of Jimnah & friends… of course, the reason KPLC had money in these shady firms/banks was coz of political connections!

I’m not sure I follow what you are saying. What do you mean by separating management from ownership?

Coldtusker:

What happened to Jimba credit?

Kimunya’s reasoning at that time was Brokers where one could not separate management and ownership were mostly likely to go under.

But for me, its a simple case of lack of controls. The other day,Business Daily highlighted how some brokerage houses had lost millions through fraudulent activities by agents and low cadre employees.

what the industry requires is to have a benchmark of the minimum control to be put in place. Ownership should be the last resort.

Huh? say what?

I think you are overstating the roll of this very minor blog. It’s just commentary; nothing more, nothing less.

Be careful people, “KE” is a very smart and apparently cunning dude. From the trend, I think he has a bigger task than just bloging… dont fall for his trap.

KE,

I have come to the conclusion that kenya is ANIMAL FARM In reality. Some people are more equal than others, the elite overlook the majority of peasants who put them in power, many go hungry while the elite leaders get fatter each day.

There’s no opposition, just a GRAND Coalition to guarantee GRAND CORRUPTION.
Kibaki is literally USELESS!! and I was an adamant kibaki supporter, Raila, no differnt, his hands are so dirty with corruption money from the grain handlers in mombasa, no wonder he does not need a salary!

honestly, where is kenya headed ? I do not see any viable replacement/ leader in 2012…

Ten crack comm… what?@@##$!

Notorious B.I.G, Tupac et al… These dimwitted people glorified crime and behaviour that reinforces stereotypes and retrogresses communities of African origin.

Not so long ago, being of African origin is synonymous with “bad credit”.

As much as I enjoy HIP-HOP & RAP for its artistic rendering, I deplore the negativity that has held down African americans – promoting ignorance, violence, dividing them and preventing their economic and social empowerment.

Screw Biggie. Screw 2pac. Screw Snoop, Dre and all the self proclaimed thugs. Their dumb short-sighted Era is gone.

Doesnt matter your point.. Biggie’s drug peddler lyrics are NOT a source of wisdom and Africans (esp Kenyans) do not identify with such nonsense.

Obama is president. Next rappers should be rapping about how to get to the white house!
