Keroche heiress now begs Uhuru to intervene in her parents’ plight


The daughter of Keroche Breweries owner, Anerlisa Muigai, has written an open letter to President Uhuru Kenyatta begging him to intervene and save her parents.

Her letter, through social media, comes just an hour after her parents, Tabitha Karanja and Joseph Karanja, who are the directors of the company, were arrested in connection to allegations of evading taxes amounting Sh14.45 billion since 2015.

“Dear Our President (Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta), I am writing in regards to our local entrepreneurs. I am humbly requesting you to intervene and help/protect us all in businesses. We chose you as our President. Everyday our local entrepreneurs are being fought. We trust and believe that you will do something about it. Thank you. #BuyKenya #BuildKenya,” Anerlisa’s message reads.
