Petition Filed to Remove CS Wandayi Over Ksh4.8 Billion Fuel Scandal

Energy Cabinet Secretary Opiyo Wandayi is under increasing pressure following a petition filed at the Milimani High Court by activist Francis Awino, seeking his suspension over alleged involvement in the irregular procurement of Ksh4.8 billion substandard fuel. The petition requests conservatory orders to restrict Wandayi from exercising powers related to petroleum procurement while the case is ongoing. Awino accuses the CS of bypassing compliance requirements and exposing consumers to unsafe petroleum products.
