Kenyans feel sweet when they are robbed by their tribes men and very bitter when they are robbed by members from other tribes. If we were objective, Uhuru, Ruto, Raila, Wetangula, Mudavadi are all tainted and should not be near anywhere in Leadership in this Country...not even leadership of a cattle Dip

Et all, what i am pinpointing is that there are loopholes that nobody has ever bothered to address in the procurement processes and procedures for Government tenders. That is where we need to start to streamline things. My take.

WTF????Bought at 1.4m and sold at 10m???That is over 600% profit.


Those who won the tender were "women and the disadvantaged in the society", and if you think you have heard it all, these tender winners are president's sister and a cousin!
And by the way the Estama company is incorporated in the Panama, sio hapo Sheria house.

Sad


Was the procurement process followed? If yes, accept and move on.

What procurement process?How does one justify buying something at 1.4m and selling at 10m.What excuse can one give for the ridiculously inflated price?


Smart business. You can also
buy cabbages in kinangop at
@10bob and sell in Nairobi at 100
bob. That's 1000% profit. Biashara
ni biashara.

What smart business.This is pure theft of the tax payers money.The officers involved in the procured should be surcharged for the theft of public resources.


Do you accuse mama Mboga of theft when she sells you a cabbage at 100 bob? When she buys the mboga at the shamba at 10 bob she has to add all her costs to determine final price eg transport cost, her rent (kibanda and home), school fees, medical expenses, food, profit etc etc. Thus the 10 Bob cabbage retails at 100 bob.

The company importing the 1.4m also has to add all the company expenses to final cost e.g. worker salaries, rent, transport, workers medical, pension, housing allowances etc etc gov't taxes and the company still needs a profit. You don't expect them to sell to gov't at import cost then dig into their pockets to pay tax, workers, pension etc etc.

That is why they sell a bic pen to govt at 70 bob.

You should be ashamed of yourself.You cannot add the cost of fombe,mpango wa kando and all your other expenses to the final consumer.If this was the money for these officers,would they spend it the same way?This is broad day thuggery and all the extra moneys need to be recovered from these officers.


And for your info Ohurus kin are not associated with Estama and therefore never imported any portable clinics.


Shame on you

I don't see any loophole @Angelica_ann, its open theft, supported by a government unwilling to prosecute thieves due to perceived closeness to those in power.

An institution advertises tenders for supply of goods and services. Companies submit bids. Tenderers invited to witness opening of tender docs. Lowest bid is choosen and contract signed. The losers admit they lost fairly. Winner supplies goods or services as per tender docs and is paid. So shida iko wapi? Where is the theft?

A used seafreight container is worth not more than Kes 200,000. drilling windows, doors etc would cost another kes 25,000 at jogoo road, anyone accepting a bid for Kes 10 M is stealing and rather opening and foolishly comfortable in the knowlege that they are untouchable.

For Kes 10M, you can construct a very comfortable 5 bedroomed house fully furnished (ignoring cost of land).

I doubt there was ever any tendering or bidding for this project.

What is the worth of the equipment in the containers?

Yes, they are out but their tribesmen are have trying to bring them back. Same way the tribesmen of those in power are ready to have them stay in power. In Kenya, it feels sweet to be robbed by your tribesman.

You are all wrong. All these are excuses. Its not systems. Its not even people close to those in power. Its the people we elected. Do not look elsewhere. In Kenya, most people run for political office to steal. If the two top guys wanted to kill corruption in government, they would show it in word and deed.
