    "content": "The conclusion on the PPRA report, Paragraph C. The contractor for the project M/s Scagent Construction Limited, supported by the officers of the Nairobi City County Government put up steel structures instead of the concrete structure, as initially tendered for by the bidders in a clear contravention of the specifications, terms of the contract and contrary to Section 135 (6) and 139 of the Public Procurement and Asset Disposal Act, 2015. The County Government paid the contractor an amount of Kshs196 million as evidenced by the payment record highlighted herein. On the recommendations, there should be more investigation on how and the extent to which variation of the materials affected the cost of the contract. In view of the above, the authority concludes that PE did not adhere to the general provisions of the Public Procurement and Assets Disposal Act, 2015, especially with specific regard to Section 44, 69, 139, 146 and relevant provisions under Section 151 (2), amongst other provisions."
