The High Court has dismissed an application by the Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) seeking to block SBI International Holdings AG from enforcing an award of Sh1.8 billion granted to the contractor two years ago.
SBI moved to court seeking to enforce a Dispute Adjudication Board’s (DAB) decision made on June 4, 2021, but KeNHA filed an application arguing that the matter should be referred to arbitration as per the term of the contract.
