The National Super Alliance (NASA) has been the latest political formation to demand for answers regarding the heating dam tender corruption saga.
In a statement Wednesday evening, the alliance urged the Jubilee government to come clean on how the water dam construction tenders were arrived at and given.
The alliance is demanding for questions as to why the government paid billions of shillings to Italian CMC Di Rivenna before the constructor arrived at the construction sites.
It also wants answers on why the state paid for the projects while well aware that land has not been allocated for the same and now wants the Treasury to issue an explanation.
"The only motivation for such irrational adventure was to facilitate quick payments of kickbacks to the perpetrators of monumental fraud," read the statement signed by NASA CEO Norman Magaya.
NASA has also insinuated that the scheme to steal public coffers might have included some top Rift Valley political figures considering that all the dams are in Rift Valley.
The alliance has termed this as the possible reason behind the Kerio Valley Development Authority (KVDA) allowing the payment of the billions to the firm without detecting that it's bankrupt.
"There is no way KVDA would have had the audacity to initiate payments for such projects without political support at the highest level of government," reads the Statement.
NASA now wants the Directorate of Criminal Investigations to intervene, expose and prosecute the possible persons behind the scam.
The dams are Itare, Arror and Kimwarer which are said to have taken about Ksh 21 billion from public coffers.
This comes as a resurrection for the alliance which was presumed moribund.
This is after other co-principals abandoned opposition chief and the alliance chief Raila Odinga during his January 30, 2018 mock presidential coronation.
