Tension is mounting in government after President William Ruto send a strong warning to government officials, following the latest Sh3.7 billion tender scandal at Kenya Medical Supplies Authority (Kemsa).

The move by the Head of State to summarily sack Dr Josphine Mburu as Public Health Principal Secretary, the Kemsa board and the suspension of the agency's chief executive officer (CEO) Terry Ramadhani over the Kemsa mosquito net scandal has sent fear among senior government officials.
