The High Court has upheld Kenya Power's decision to terminate a Sh410.6 million electricity poles supply contract after finding the supplier repeatedly failed to meet delivery deadlines.

The court dismissed Inter Tropical Timber Trading's Sh284.9 million breach-of-contract claim, ruling that an expired commercial contract cannot be revived through later emails, negotiations or continued engagement between the parties.
