The question that begs is whether they procure just for the heck of it and then have the same as incomplete projects after contractors have been paid part of their money.

• 10 Sep 2020 in National Assembly: We also looked at the audit reports of Kenya Pipeline Company (KPC). Something that touched us and brought us to so many questions is the issue of compensation of contractors, especially the ones who were constructing Line Five from Mombasa to Nairobi.
