Bechtel (US government) rejected the PPI model that government honchos proposed for the project.


Then the same Kenyan governments honchos said that the Chinese were major contenders after the Betchtel pull out.
The major reason for the pull out was inflation of cost of construction of the road.
It is now clear that the US government has ditched the project which it earlier this year questioned its costing, with concerns it had been inflated by at least 66.7 per cent.
While initial construction costs by the Americans was estimated at $1.8 billion (Sh185.9 billion), government placed the cost at $3billion (Sh309.9 billion) which is Sh124 billion more.



If the contract is ever given,it will be to one who allows for their costs to be inflated.
I left it at where Bechtel was blackmailing the government to be the loan guarantor.

Ni kama yule contractor amepewa job ya kuweka drainage just before you join riverside pale chiromo. Yaani he is now in the third week.....yaani the traffic pile up there is out of this world, mind you this is a very busy road.

Leo nimepitia hapo katika pilka pilka zangu za kamagira (@Ngimanene na Muchere ) happy now?

Alafu nikapata majamaa wanafunika mchanga na mikono pole pole lackadaisically.

Sina mbisha simu ilikuwa on power saving mode.

We have a huge problem.
