The Mombasa High Court has ordered the Kenya Ferry Services (KFS) to hire consultants to examine the safety of one of two Sh2 billion ferries before deploying it to operate along the busy Likoni channel.

Justice Erick Ogola on Tuesday ordered that KFS re-advertises the tender for supervision and inspection of MV Jambo, which was due to arrive at Mombasa port last week, to determine its seaworthiness and check for any default that may have occurred on its journey from Turkey.
