Indian conglomerate Sanghi Group’s licence to exclusively mine limestone in West Pokot for nearly one century is under threat, following an order for audit of the deal.
Sanghi Group’s Cemtech was given an exclusive 99-year lease to mine limestone in the county for manufacture of cement, but the Competition Authority of Kenya (CAK) says the deal is lopsided in favour of the firm.
