Auditor General Nancy Gathungu has highlighted serious problems with several projects, prompting Sports Kenya’s management to take immediate action.
Despite the allocation of Sh4.3 billion to numerous key initiatives, there are significant delays and issues.
Despite spending Sh81.6 million at Kamariny Stadium, only about 30% of the work is complete.
The contractor has been absent from the site since the project stalled in 2017.
Despite spending Sh326.8 million, or 88% of the total Sh304.2 million contract, on Kipchoge Keino Stadium Phase I, the project remains incomplete, and the contract termination process has already begun. The value of money remains unverified.
Karatu Stadium has consumed Sh149.4 million (58% of the Sh259.6 million contract), but issues include an incomplete 1,500-seat pavilion, a collapsed perimeter wall, an unfinished car park, and an undrilled borehole. Since 2020, there have been no public works visits.
The Moi International Sports Centre is under scrutiny for the construction of a bus rapid transit facility on its land that lacks Cabinet approval, falls outside Sports Kenya’s mandate, and violates legal requirements.
