Mumias Sugar Company has been ordered to pay Sh12 million to its former Chief Executive Officer (CEO) after the court ruled that he deserved his dues for services rendered.

Justice Stephen Radido of the Employment and Labour Relations Court in Kisumu noted that although the termination of Nashon Aseka's employment was procedurally fair, it was devoid of substantive fairness for failure by the respondent to justify or prove the reasons.
