The dispute on the multi-billion-shilling Standard Gauge Railway contract is not yet over. Lawyer Peter Kaluma said the judgment by three appellate judges curtails performance of the contract and grants the contracting parties solid basis to avoid performing their obligations under the SGR contract. Violation of the law or illegality vitiates and renders contracts incapable of performance by the contracting parties and unenforceable in law,” he said. Terming the decision as “earthmoving”, he said it has immediate implications to the SGR contract and overall impact over procurement and disposal processes.
