Was he part of the management that led to collapse of a bank, where millions of Kenyans lost their money? If, indeed, that is correct, is the same gentleman fit to be a Chief Executive Officer of another bank, even if we were to put other issues aside? Could the Assistant Minister also confirm or deny that it is the same Mr. Mwangi - because names can be similar - who was mentioned in the Goldenberg Scandal? I do not want to go into other details. Most people have invested in the Nairobi Stock Exchange (NSE). But is it normal for the value of a share to grow eight-fold in a span of one year? Is it normal for this to happen, or those are exceptional---"}
