By now you’re all aware of the recent allegations that surfaced online about OPPO Kenya CEO harassing an employee. These reports came to the limelight at the same time the company had launched its new device the OPPO F7 in the market.
In a leaked recording that was widely shared on social media, the company’s ‘’CEO’ Andrew Peng is heard verbally harassing an ‘’employee’ questioning him why he had not fired some brand promoters as instructed. What followed next was a trending hashtag #ShameOnOppoKenya with Kenyans expressing different views regarding the incident.
