"content": "provided another company in Brazil which does not exist. You can see the chronology of events. This company applied yet it did not have the capacity; it interfered with the procurement procedures; the sources of their maize only existed somewhere else and not on planet earth, and we have confirmed that beyond reasonable doubt. The Ethiopian Grain Trade Enterprise is a State-owned corporation. That in itself is a serious criminal offence - they have used the name of a good company in a neighbouring country to justify their commission of crime. When we did not find the sources of their maize, we went and looked at the proceeds of the tender. This company, with no facility and financial capability, was allowed to import maize worth US$9,160,000. This company did not only have the capacity to import maize worth that amount of money, which is equivalent to about Kshs800 million, but also did not have the capacity to supply ten bags of maize because it was non-existent. Until then the company did not have offices. There was even a dispute on who was the Managing Director, or who owned the company."
