Counties Coast elders, MPs now fault KPA boss forced exitFormer Kenya Ports Authority managing director Catherine Mturi-Wairi. The KPA board had said the decision to send her home was also due to lack of effective leadership and a non-responsive work culture. But Kaya elders and Coast leaders now want the government to explain why she was unceremoniously sent on compulsory leave. Mr Baya said the region cannot celebrate the country’s attainment of self-independence (Madaraka) yet parastatals in Coast region are headed by non-locals. Kaya elders have threatened to hold massive demonstrations if their "daughter" is not reinstated.
