The Kenya Petroleum Oil Workers Union has petitioned the Capital Markets Authority (CMA) regarding alleged corporate governance irregularities at the Kenya Pipeline Company (KPC), specifically concerning the recruitment of its Managing Director.

• The union argues that the KPC board may lack the mandate to oversee executive appointments following the company's transition from a public to a private entity.
• Key organization involved: Kenya Petroleum Oil Workers Union petitioning the Capital Markets Authority and Kenya Pipeline Company.
• The union is requesting the CMA to investigate the recruitment process's legality and consider deferring the exercise until the board is properly reconstituted.
