Mumias accuses G4S of inflating prices to claim Sh45 million

NAIROBI: Mumias Sugar Company has accused an international security firm of increasing the cost of its services to the miller without prior agreement.

Mumias’ finance officer Jonathan Koome told High Court Judge Francis Gikonyo that G4S — which is claiming Sh45 million from the miller — breached contract terms by increasing the cost of a guard to Sh23,461 from Sh17,896 without the sugar firm’s approval.
