Motorists use a diversion along Nyeri-Nairobi highway on June 24, 2021. Dueling was in progress on the 84-kilometre Kenol-Sagana-Marua road, which is jointly funded by the African Development Bank and the Government of Kenya to the tune of Sh14 billion.
AfDB probe found that the firm engaged in fraudulent practices in the Sh33 billion Kenol-Sagana-Marua highway project.
The African Development Bank (AfDB) has banned a Chinese company, Weihai Construction Group, over alleged fraud in three multibillion-shilling infrastructure projects it was handling in Kenya.
The bank said an investigation conducted by its Office of Integrity and Anti-Corruption established that Weihai engaged in fraudulent practices in the Sh33 billion Kenol-Sagana-Marua highway improvement project, phase two of the Nairobi Rivers Basin Rehabilitation and Restoration Programme, and the towns sustainable water supply and sanitation programme.
