The East Africa Portland Cement Company (EAPCC) board has raised concerns over the appointment of a new Managing Director.

The board through its chairman Brig (Rtd) Richard Mbithi said although Mr Bruno Oguda Obodha was appointed as the Managing Director for East African Portland Cement Plc by President William Ruto, his involvement with the company raises integrity issues that amount to a conflict of interest.
