The planned construction of a new Mombasa-Nairobi oil pipeline is the latest government contract to run into tendering headwinds after some losing bidders challenged the award of the Sh43 billion deal to Lebanese firm Zakhem International.
The losing bidders have lodged an appeal with the review board of the Public Procurement Oversight Authority (PPOA) seeking to bar Kenya Pipeline Company (KPC) from signing a contract with Zakhem, citing irregularities.
