On January 7, 2020, the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) launched an investigation into a Sh350m tender awarded to M/S Scanjet Construction Limited for the construction and completion of Dandora Stadium in Nairobi.
The investigation follows a damning audit report by the Public Procurement Regulatory Authority, which questioned the tendering process and alleged ongoing substandard works.
According to the report, the county government irregularly paid Sh196 million to the contractor despite warnings from technical evaluators regarding the quality of the ongoing works.
Yesterday, EACC Chief Executive Officer Twalib Mbarak summoned Mr Leboo to present himself at Integrity Centre on January 16 and to furnish his officers with nine original documents sought.
Mr Mbarak stated, 'The commission is conducting investigations into allegations of corruption and procurement irregularities in the award of tender No NCC/ED/T/193/2017-2018 proposed construction and completion of No 4 stadia to M/S Scanjet Construction Limited by Nairobi City County government in the financial year 2017/2018.'
He added, 'Take notice that you are required to provide the aforesaid documents and information by Thursday, January 16, 2020 at 9am at Integrity Centre. Further, you are hereby invited to attend an interview and also record a statement on the above said documents on the same date.'
