A human rights organisation is demanding documentation revealing how Mombasa County entered into a Sh17 billion waste-to-energy tender project without the assembly’s approval.

The Centre for Litigation Trust (CLT) said that the entire tendering process that was awarded to Jospong Group, a Ghanaian conglomerate, was shrouded in secrecy without public participation.
