@GG,
another opportunity for the ICT Authority to take over this project. I know ministry of education feels it is their "stronghold" but I think they need help.
I wish I could say "I told you so" - but unfortunately it is my 25B Ksh being played around with. Every Kenyan loses in these high-stakes type of games.
walu.

The Public Procurement Administrative Review
Board has cancelled the tender award to Indian firm Olive
Technologies to supply and install laptops for Standard One
Pupils. In a ruling made Wednesday afternoon, the board
chaired by Josephine Mong'are reversed the tender and
ordered the procurement committee to retender within 45
days. The board said its decision was informed by the fact
that Olive Technologies lacked financial ability to carry
out the project.
