Kenya Pipeline Company (KPC) management is once again in the eye of a storm following revelations that it agreed to pay a Lebanese contractor Sh4.4 billion for operational delays in the building of the Mombasa-Nairobi pipeline, whose large cost variation has been subject of parliamentary investigation.
Documents seen by the Business Daily show that the KPC management struck a deal with Zakhem International Construction on April 9 for payment of $44 million (Sh4.4 billion) to cover the four years delay that hit construction of the 450-kilometre pipeline.
