Turkana County has stalled a project by Geothermal Development Company (GDC) to drill at the Baringo-Silali prospect site for the last seven years by denying the project necessary approvals.
Auditor-General Nancy Gathungu says in a report on the national government expenditure for 2020/21 the GDC indicated that it had requested approval for geothermal development and associated projects from the county government of Turkana through a letter referenced GDC/MD/02/3a/GMM-jat dated May 2015.
