THE STANDARD By Kamau Muthoni | December 14th 2020 at 00:00:00 GMT +0300 A cargo handling firm has been cleared of claims of involvement in a controversial port tender that landed former Kenya Ports Authority managing director Daniel Manduku in trouble. In a letter to the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI), the Public Procurement Regulatory Authority (PPRA) has clarified that the Nairobi Inland Cargo Terminal Limited (NICTL) did not bid or participate in the tender that rocked KPA. In addition, the authority says KPA did not provide clear information to investigators which would have helped it arrive at the current finding. “In light of the content of our report as reiterated above and the new information received, we would like to clarify that Nairobi Inland Cargo Terminal Limited did not participate in tender no KPA/021/2019-2019 ICDN for provision of container warehouse services in Nairobi,” said PPRA Director General Thomas Otieno.
