The Music Copyright Society of Kenya Limited (MCSK) has issued a stern warning to its members, stakeholders, and the general public against engaging with Ezekiel Mutua Nyithya, who was dismissed as the society’s Chief Executive Officer on April 3, 2025.
In a statement published in a local daily on January 12, 2026, MCSK’s Board of Directors expressed concern over what it described as “continued public misinformation” by Mutua, who has allegedly continued to present himself as the society’s CEO despite his dismissal.
The Board noted that the termination was legally upheld in May 2025 by two separate High Court rulings after Mutua challenged his dismissal.
The society cautioned members and partners that Mutua “is no longer an employee of MCSK and does not have any authority to transact any business for and on behalf of MCSK.”
It urged the public to exercise vigilance to avoid being misled into entering financial or other commitments with him.
MCSK further issued a disclaimer, stating that it “shall not be held liable for any loss, damage, or injury incurred for transacting with Ezekiel Mutua Nyithya in the name of MCSK.”
The society’s statement reinforces its commitment to protecting its members’ interests and safeguarding the integrity of its operations.
By issuing this caution, MCSK seeks to clarify its leadership and ensure that all official business is conducted through legitimate, authorized channels.
