The Director of Public Prosecutions is considering charging Kemsa bosses in relation to the Sh7.8 billion Covid-19 procurement scandal. The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission has recommended prosecution of directors of eight companies implicated in the scandal at the Kenay Medical Supplies Agency. The commission has recommended that the entities be prosecuted for flouting procurement rules in the Kenya Medical Supplies Authority purchases. The registration forms of Accenture Kenya list Newton Munene Njiru and Ben Mundia Munene as the firm’s directors. The companies, their directors and Kemsa officials face charges related to the procurement and payments for the supplies.
