Days after media reports alleging rampant procurement fraud at the Kenya Ports Authority (KPA), the Authority says it has commenced investigations into the matter.
KPA on Wednesday, May 28, said it had invited relevant agencies to independently review the procurement matters in question in line with its values and accountability.
This is after a popular newspaper alleged a string of graft dealings, spanning from inflated contracts to secret tenders and blatant breaches of procurement laws.
In the newspaper headline dubbed 'KPA Billions Loot', the media house claimed that KPA pushed through over Ksh100 billion with no records of the said dealings.
