A Mombasa-based consultancy firm has sued the Kenya Ports Authority (KPA) over the cancellation of a Sh43 million tender for the construction of the new Kipevu Oil Terminal. Feradon Associates Ltd has accused KPA of wrongful termination of the contract after initially being declared the winner. The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission has also joined the suit as an interested party.
Feradon's lawyer Meshack Odero said yesterday the firm followed the tendering process and was awarded the tender on March 15, last year. “Without any iota of right and justification, and after going mute for nearly two months, 53 days to be specific, KPA illegally and unilaterally canceled the aforesaid award via a later dated May 6, 2019,” said Odero.
