The Senate Standing Committee on Roads, Transportation and Housing has raised tough questions over the Sh45.8 billion Talanta Stadium project.
The Ministry of Youth Affairs, Creative Economy and Sports was at pains to explain procurement procedures, rising construction costs and land ownership documentation.
The multi-billion-shilling stadium, which is being constructed ahead of the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), came under scrutiny during a heated session between Senators and officials from the Sports Ministry led by Cabinet Secretary Salim Mvurya.
