A Sh21 billion tender by Kenya Power (Kenya Power and Lighting Company or KPLC) for the supply of meters hangs in the balance after the procurement oversight authority began investigating claims of corruption.
The Public Procurement Regulatory Authority (PPRA) has written to KPLC Managing Director Joseph Siror demanding an explanation on how the multi-billion shillings tender was awarded following complaints by a businessman that the process was muddled with fraud and collusion.
