Summary
President William Ruto has defended billionaire businessman Aliko Dangote’s purchase of a 24.76 percent stake in Kenya Pipeline Company (KPC), saying the shares were publicly available to any investor. Speaking on Tuesday, October 27, at the groundbreaking ceremony for Devki’s clinker and cement plant in Kitui County, Ruto said critics should have bought shares themselves instead of questioning Dangote’s investment. “I see extortionists and share racketeers asking why Dangote has bought shares at KPC. Why not? The shares are available at the Nairobi Stock Exchange. Nobody has been stopped from buying them. Go buy shares,” the president said.
