Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja has come under sharp criticism after the Institution of Engineers of Kenya (IEK) accused his administration of persistent corruption.
IEK on Saturday, April 26, expressed frustrations over the growing challenges faced by its members in the submission and approval of development plans in Nairobi City County. In a statement, the Institution claimed that its members were frustrated by entrenched corruption, inefficiency, and lack of transparency in the development approval process by the county government.
According to IEK, a section of engineers reported instances where their development plans were intentionally delayed or rejected unless they paid a bribe to hasten the approval process.
