New KCB Chief Executive Paul Russo has a deep respect for his predecessor, Joshua Oigara, whom he describes as "an amazing boss".
But it is time to move away from the shadow of his mentor as he leads the region's second-largest bank to the next level of growth. "I personally talk about writing the next chapter," Mr Russo said in an interview with Financial Standard following the release of KCB's half-year results on Wednesday last week.
