Responding to the summons to clarify the Sh 17 billion oil consignment in Parliament, businesswoman and oil tycoon Anne Njoroge has officially acknowledged the request.
According to a report featured in Friday's Standard publication, Anne Njoroge has committed to attending the parliamentary summons.
As indicated in a letter, the National Assembly Departmental Committee on Energy has called upon Anne Njoroge to present herself before them on November 22.
Through her lawyer David Gichumo, Anne Njoroge emphasized the significance of defending her Sh 17 billion oil consignment presently held at the Mombasa port.
It's worth noting that Ann's Imports and Export, a company owned by Anne Njoroge, is currently entangled in a disagreement with Galana Energies Limited over the ownership of 100,000 metric tons of oil.
On a separate front, leaders of the Azimio la Umoja, a faction within the One Kenya Coalition, spearheaded by former Prime Minister Raila Odinga, are now urging President William Ruto to provide clarity on the government-to-government fuel deal.
In statements made yesterday, Mr. Odinga asserted that corruption accompanied the G2G fuel deal, citing it as the reason why Uganda's President Yoweri Museveni chose to engage in an oil deal with Kenya.
In response, Ruto's faction, headed by Majority Leader Kimani Ichungwah, refuted Mr. Odinga's allegations, dismissing his dossier as mere hot air and propaganda.
