Cabinet Secretary for Co-operatives and Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises Development Wycliffe Oparanya has appointed a new nine-member committee to oversee the Nairobi Coffee Exchange (NCE) transition to the Capital Markets Authority (CMA).
This follows the reforms to improve farmer incomes and bringing transparency to coffee trading by transitioning the NCE to be supervised by the CMA after an uproar from the farmers.
In an official notice dated Friday, February 21, Oparanya named Kenneth Gitonga as the chairperson of the committee.
Jackie Muia, Amos Mamboleo, Irene Kabochi, Roselyne Chepkirui, Luka Rotich, Job Kihumba, Raphael Anampiu, and Elphas Tarus were named as the members of the committee.
