Savannah Clinker's financial health is under scrutiny, with reports indicating the company owes Sh18 billion and has a staggering debt of Sh14 billion. Despite these financial struggles, Savannah aims to raise over Sh65 billion for the acquisition, prompting analysts to query the source of this funding.
"This is a classic case of a company biting off more than it can chew," said Johnstone Kipkoech, a Nairobi-based financial analyst. "Savannah's financial struggles are well-documented, and it's alarming that they're attempting to acquire a more financially stable company like Bamburi."
Sustainability Concerns
The acquisition raises concerns about sustainability, particularly given Savannah's history of financial woes. Bamburi Cement, on the other hand, has consistently demonstrated financial stability and growth.

"Bamburi Cement is a prized asset, and its acquisition by a company with questionable financials poses significant risks," noted James Mwai, a stock market expert. "Shareholders and regulators must carefully evaluate the implications of this deal."
The Competition Authority of Kenya (CAK) and the Capital Markets Authority (CMA) are expected to scrutinize Savannah's bid, with many calling for transparency regarding the company's funding sources.
"Savannah must provide clear assurances about their financial capacity to complete this acquisition," said CAK Director-General, Wang'ombe Kariuki. "We will thoroughly review the bid to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements."
Kenyan citizens have taken to social media to express concerns, with #SavannahClinkerExposed trending on Twitter.
