The Nairobi County government has told the Auditor General that the award of the e-payment contract to Webtribe, to collect revenue on behalf of City Hall, was above board.
This is after Auditor General Edward Ouko questioned how the Sh23 million contract was awarded to Webtribe, which owns JamboPay. However, while responding to the audit queries, Nairobi County ICT Director Benter Ogot said that the county wanted to maximise on the technical ability of the system to deliver.
