Telkom Kenya has failed to recover Sh217.1 million from Kenya Railways Corporation for unpaid services dating back to more than three decades, pointing to long-standing cash flow challenges at the State-owned rail line operator.

The accumulating debt relates to unpaid voice and data services from late 1980s through 2007 when the struggling telco operated landline Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN), according to court filings.
