Officials in William Ruto’s government are the ones who shared Adani-JKIA deal documents with the whistle blower, Nelson Amenya.
Speaking during an interview with BBC Africa, Mr. Amenya, who resides and studies in France, disclosed that he received documents about the multi-billion deal from credible sources within the current government and who were close to the related departments.
The 30-year-old first had failed to recognise the weight the deal would have on Kenyans but after a thorough scrutiny, he came to the realisation that the deal was sour for this nation.
“The first feeling I had when I was passed the documents was that it was just another government deal. I did not understand the magnitude or the seriousness of it,” Amenya told BBC journalists.
To reveal who actually gave him the documents, Amenya said, government insiders who were also not comfortable with deal shared the papers.
“The people who were giving me these documents were from very legitimate departments of government and it was going to hurt the Kenyan economy,” he added.
The whistleblower explained further that the deal would have been unfair to Kenyans as it would have consumed much of taxpayers’ money without substantial returns.
He added that it was about cutting deals and bribery in which senior State officers had pocketed a lot of money from Adani investors.
