Battle: Dar es Salaam vs Nairobi

You didn’t take EACOP, it was given to you due to cost and misunderstanding between Kenya and Total. Tanzania didn’t have a say in switching the EACOP route.
Misunderstanding? How while Kenyatta vied for the chance to host the pipeline on a competitive bid and fairly lost! Have u already forgot the number of trips he made to Paris in an attempt to persue Total energies to have a change of mind!

Tanzania had no influence in changing the route. Main reasons why pipeline was change were because of the following;

1. Expensive land compensation
2. GOK insisted on using Lamu Port while Total wanted Mombasa. That’s the agreement I’m talking about.
3. Insecurity.
