Reports have revealed that the company later sent amended contracts to the investors via email with reduced returns and reduced contract period. The company also closed its offices along Kimathi Street and at Karen in Nairobi and no office phone was working and with the whereabouts of the company’s CEO unknown since Monday, March 2, 2020.
The company however announced it was diverting to herbs farming in its last Facebook post that was posted on February 27th, 2020.

Meanwhile, detectives from DCI have launched a manhunt for Goldenscape CEO Peter Wangai after they failed to catch him in his offices located along Kimathi Street Lower Kabete and Karen on Friday.
