Before the arrest of senior State officials in the energy sector over contested fuel cargo, Kenyan authorities tried unsuccessfully to block a ship carrying 60, 000 tonnes of petrol from docking at the port of Mombasa.
The State alleged that the emergency shipment was overpriced, of substandard quality, and procured at rates significantly higher than those agreed under existing deals.
