On Monday, all Kenya Ports Authority Board members were summoned at the DCI Headquarters for questioning in a probe of flawed tenders worth Sh2.7 billion.
Board chair Joseph Kibwana was the only one absent, while Kenya Railways Corporation MD Philip Mainga was also quizzed over the Makongeni yard, which KPA had intended to buy but the deal never materialised.
According to the DCI probe, differences between the board and corrupt managing director Daniel Manduku emerged after he claimed that his signatures were forged.
Those on the DCI's radar are Dr Daniel Manduku, operations general manager William Rutto, senior works officer Anthony Muhanji, principal civil engineer Bernard Nyobange and works officer Juma Chigulu.
Earlier this year, the EACC and DCI launched inquiries over the fraudulent awarding of a Sh40 billion Kipevu Oil Terminal project to a blacklisted Chinese firm in October 2018.
