Khalif Kairo, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Kai & Karo Limited, has been in the spotlight recently due to legal and business challenges. His company is currently under investigation by the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) for potential tax irregularities.
Kairo has accused a former business partner of using bribery to influence Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) officials, alleging that the partner orchestrated the investigation as a form of harassment. He maintains that his tax records are in order and attributes the scrutiny to personal vendettas.
