Relief as new oxygen plant arrives in Kakamega 

What you need to know:

  • Governor Oparanya had expressed disappointment that the national government was taxing medical equipment in the middle of a devastating pandemic.

A Sh100 million medical oxygen equipment Kakamega County imported from France in July 7 this year was finally delivered on Thursday.

Investigations by the Nation last month disclosed that the equipment was still stuck at the port because of a tax dispute with the Kenya Revenue Authority, which was demanding Sh8 million. The importer cleared the bill last week.
