Pending Bills
The best indicator of the magnitude of fraudulent dealings in public works is the astounding finding, by a Government probe body, that 99% of the nearly Ksh 90 billion worth of claims lodged in respect of development vote works are “not payable.” [Full Details]

KenRen Fertilizer
In its hey-day, Ken Ren was the Goldenberg and Anglo Leasing of Kenyan public sector corruption.  It had a mix of local and foreign players and was shrouded in mystery.   Shrouded in mystery, for a generation of Kenyans, Ken Ren is almost completely unknown.

In the early 1970’s, a decision was made to enter into a joint venture with an American Company to establish a fertiliser processing plant at Mombasa, on the Kenyan Coast. The company was called Ken Ren Chemical and Fertilizer Company. The government was both a shareholder and a guarantor for the factory. The deal collapsed in scandal and the factory was never built. The company ended up in liquidation and embroiled in litigation in Europe.  At the heart of parliamentary and public scrutiny, was the role of treasury, then headed by Mwai Kibaki, as Minister of Finance.

Artur Brothers

Kroll Report

Kenya's Debt 1.1 Trillion
Treasury stands accused of pathetic stewardship of our public resources which threatens to cost this country Ksh 56 billion at the very least. If the debt register contains false entries, Kenyans have no way of knowing how much they owe to external creditors and on what terms. In effect the PS has disclosed that there is a multi billion shilling hole in our books comprising what are obviously unconscionable debts. What are the implications of such a hole in the budgeting process which the same Treasury is undertaking ahead of the June 30th Budget Speech by the Minister for Finance? What, if any, provisions are being made, and what is the basis for making provisions, for repayment of foreign loans which are fictitious to put it mildly. In any democracy this would be enough to cause the wholesale resignation or sacking of the top brass at the Ministry of Finance! [Full Details]

Promissory Notes
Kenya may be legally bound to repay tens of millions of pounds of debt incurred when politicians signed security-related contracts with non-existent companies.
The so-called Anglo-Leasing deals, named after the most notorious of the contracts agreed with a fictitious British-registered firm, were struck between 1997 and 2004. Goods and services were either grossly overpriced or simply never delivered, allowing government officials and businessmen to steal huge sums of taxpayers' money. [Full Details]

Attorney General Incompetent
The Attorney General signed each of the promissory notes and gave a legal opinion on December 15, 2003, confirming their binding nature on the Government of Kenya. The fact is that the irrevocable promissory notes are sovereign paper, and because they have been signed by GOK officials, they cannot be disavowed as easily as the new Minister for Finance recently claimed on Kenyan television. It is not beyond the realm of possibility that at some point someone will come knocking demanding payment on the strength of these securities. What will the Government tell us then? [Full Details]
