The Kenya ferry Services (KFS) Board of Directors  led by its Chairman, former Changamwe Mp Ramadhan Kajembe has called for a crisis meeting to discuss the fate of the current Managing Director Bakari Gowa whose term is said to be expiring soon.

According to a source , the meeting is set for this Friday.

"All members of the board will be present with the main agenda being to discuss the fate of the MD and see if his stay at the office can be extended or not " said the source.

Gowa was appointed as the MD in 2016 (June 28) taking over from Musa Hassan Musa who was sacked early that year (2016) due to what was termed as "deterioration of  ferry services".

He (Gowa) has been hailed for improving services at the Likoni channel.

During his tenure Gowa has managed to acquire two new ferries, MV Jambo with the second vessel MV Safari still in Turkey awaiting the conclusion of an appeal before judges Alnashir Visram, Martha Koome and Wanjiru Karanja which is expected by the end of the month.  

Before his appointment Gowa was the finance manager at the state agency.

Meanwhile former Changamwe Parliamentary seat aspirant Philip Ndolo has been appointed as a board member at KFS, he is among the individuals who were last week appointed to different parastatals  by president Kenyatta
