Besieged Communications Authority of Kenya (CA) boss Francis Wangusi yesterday won some reprieve after a Nairobi court reinstated him amid a raging succession row at the regulator.

Employment and Labour Relations Court Judge Byram Ongaya issued an order stopping the recruitment of the CA director-general’s successor following a petition by the Consumers Federation of Kenya (Cofek) challenging the recruitment process.
