The Kenya Ports Authority (KPA) says it requires Sh17.4 billion to buy equipment and complete the construction of the two berths at the port of Lamu.
Tender documents show that the KPA targets borrowing Sh12.4billion from local and foreign banks, of which Sh3.2 billion will be used to complete construction works at the port that is not yet fully operational.
