President Ruto Cancels JKIA & KETRACO Deals With Adani
President William Ruto cancels all Adani Group JKIA and KETRACO deals with Kenya after Gautam Adani indictment for corruption by the US earlier on Today.
President William Ruto has directed Transport Cabinet Secretary Davis Chirchir and his Energy counterpart Opiyo Wandayi to end the ongoing public-private partnership discussion with Adani Group Holdings.
Speaking on Thursday, November 21, during his State of the Nation address in Parliament, the Head of State revealed that his directive was influenced by the provision of undisputed evidence or credible information on corruption.
“I have stated in the past, and I reiterate today, that in the face of undisputed evidence or credible information on corruption, I will not hesitate to take decisive action,” stated the Head of State.
According to Ruto, the decision to stop the government’s contractual engagements with the Adani Group stemmed from key transparency considerations that the deal had violated.
