MOMBASA: Kenya Ports Authority (KPA) Retirement Benefits Scheme trustee Fred Oyugi has been sacked.

Mr Oyugi's removal has crippled the scheme for lack of quorum of three to transact any business legally because only three out of six trustees (of the scheme) remain in office after one who is a member of the Dock Workers Union (DWU) was sacked earlier this year after a strike at the port.
