are not just unethical but detrimental to Kenya’s economy and reputation. The monopolistic tendencies and compromised quality standards harm competitors, contractors, and the public. The culture of threats, blackmail, and coercion targeting public officials, regulatory bodies, and industry players perpetuates impunity and undermines our institutions.

I am too afraid to come forward openly for fear of being targeted, fired, or falsely accused. However, I urge those in positions of power to take action. The manipulation of public institutions for personal and corporate gain must end. The President’s firm stance against waivers and exemptions must be enforced. Regulators like KEBS and KRA should be empowered to act independently, free from political and corporate interference.

This letter is a plea for justice and reform. The Kenyan people deserve institutions that operate with integrity, businesses that adhere to ethical practices, and leaders who prioritize public welfare over personal or corporate interests.

RT @C_NyaKundiH: State Capture: Leaked Email Exposes Devki Group Over Kshs. 4 Billion Tax Evasion

A leaked email has surfaced exposing a rare glimpse into the alleged pressures and unethical practices tied to one of Kenya’s most prominent conglomerates.

Central to the email are allegations that the Devki Group, through its subsidiaries Devki Steel Mills Limited and Cemtech Limited, is at the centre of efforts to coerce the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) into overlooking tax liabilities amounting to Kshs. 1.6 billion and Kshs. 2.4 billion respectively.

The email details a disturbing pattern of intimidation, with claims that public officials at KRA and Treasury who resisted the demands were subjected to direct threats of dismissal and investigations by anti-corruption agencies.

These coercive tactics allegedly extend beyond tax issues and touch on regulatory violations.

Among the most shocking allegations is the revelation that Simba Cement, a Devki Group subsidiary, was allegedly caught selling underweight cement bags which is a clear violation of Kenya Bureau of Standards (KEBS) regulations but KEBS officials were reportedly silenced with threats of job termination.

Competitors, fearing retaliation, have refrained from speaking openly, with some reportedly considering exiting the Kenyan market due to an environment increasingly monopolized by the Devki Group.

There are also concerns over poor-quality steel products allegedly returned by major contractors and Chinese firms.

Below is the full unprecedented whistleblower account.

"Anonymously Reporting Coercion Over Tax Obligations and Unethical Practices

To Whom It May Concern.

I write this letter anonymously, driven by the need to expose the intimidation, corruption, and unethical practices that are eroding the integrity of public institutions in Kenya. The current situation involving Devki Steel Mills Limited, Cemtech Limited, and their subsidiaries has escalated into a systemic crisis, fueled by political interference and corporate collusion. The fear of reprisal prevents me and others from coming forward openly, but the truth must be told.

In addition to the outstanding tax liabilities—Kshs. 1,604,579,640.09 for Devki Steel Mills Limited and Kshs. 2,413,761,656 for Cemtech Limited—the manner in which pressure is being applied to KRA and Treasury officials is deeply disturbing. Reports suggest that officials who resisted these demands have faced threats and intimidation, creating an environment of fear within key institutions.

When a senior KRA official escalated the matter directly to the President, seeking clarity, the President’s stance was unequivocal: “No one will be given exemptions; there will be no waivers whatsoever.” This decisive response reflects the President’s commitment to fairness and the rule of law. However, these words have yet to translate into action, as the intimidation persists.

Beyond the tax liabilities, unethical practices extend into other areas of the Devki Group’s operations. Speaking to cement industry players, many expressed fear of speaking out, as they are terrified of being targeted. A subsidiary of the Devki Group, Simba Cement, was caught by KEBS selling 47kg cement bags instead of the standard 50kg. However, KEBS officials were reportedly warned that their jobs would be at risk if they pursued the matter further.

The monopolistic environment cultivated by the Devki Group has created significant challenges for competitors. A representative from Bamburi Cement disclosed that the hostile market dynamics are forcing them to consider exiting the Kenyan market, leaving it open for Devki’s dominance. Speaking to two large steel companies, they raised concerns about poor quality products from Devki’s steel mills.

These companies, whose main customers are large contractors and Chinese projects, revealed that they often have to return goods due to substandard quality, something they cannot risk with high-stakes projects.

These actions[...]
