On March 22, The Banker interviewed Central Bank of Kenya governor Andrew Mullei, during which the confident and relaxed governor discussed the persistently strong domestic currency, inflationary pressures and the health of the banking system, among other topics.
Days later, however, on March 24, Mr Mullei was suspended, amid allegations of corruption. His case is pending but rumours and innuendo swirl around him. He denies any wrong-doing.
