Kenya Power awarded multi-million shilling contracts for provision of labour and transport services to unqualified companies, according to witness statements filed in court.

This emerged yesterday during a pre-trial conference before Anti-Corruption Court Chief Magistrate Douglas Ogoti when lawyers representing the accused persons confirmed receipt of 19 witness statements and 37 pieces of documentary evidence to be relied on by the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP).
