Roads, Transport and Public Works Cabinet Secretary nominee Kipchumba Murkomen will make public contract details of the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) whose total cost has now hit Sh670 billion should Parliament approve his appointment.

Mr Murkomen told the National Assembly’s Committee on Appointment that the details of the contract have remained opaque despite Kenyans pushing to know whether the Kenya Ports Authority (KPA) was used to guarantee the loans.
