Fellow Kenyans,
We the friends of Siaya Anti-Nuclear Plant have formally appealed to the Commission on Administrative Justice, also known as the Office of the Ombudsman, over NuPEA's failure to provide information about the proposed Siaya nuclear project.
In late July 2026, we submitted a formal request for 62 categories of documents. We asked for information on safety, environmental studies, possible resettlement of families, and how the public has been involved in the project.
Out of the 62 requests, only 14 were fully answered. Nineteen received no response at all, while 15 were only partly answered. NuPEA's response letter was not dated and did not follow the proper legal process.
Key reports were withheld. Some requests were pushed to other government agencies without being forwarded. Proper contact details were also not provided.
This is not a small matter. The proposed project could affect fisherfolk, farmers, families and the wider Lake Victoria region. Communities deserve clear answers about safety, the environment, possible displacement and compensation before such a major project moves forward.
We therefore demand;
(a)Full disclosure of all withheld information
(b)No further project approvals until communities are fully informed
The people of Siaya have a right to know what is being planned in their communities.
We are now awaiting the Commission's review. Our struggle for transparency, accountability and justice continues.
