Ethiopian firm Kabew Limited is seeking to attach an account held by Spanish contractor Instalaciones Inabensa SA at the Africa Development Bank (AfDB) in a dispute over payment for construction works on power lines connecting Kenya and Uganda’s national grids.

Kabew, an Ethiopian firm with a Kenyan subsidiary, has asked the High Court to issue the attachment order to settle a Sh150 million debt it claims arose from sub-contracting works it did on the Kenya-Uganda interconnection power project.
