[kictanet] Board cancels tender awarded to Olive Technologies to supply Standard One

[Paul Roy]

Sorry Kivuva I don't see why ICTA should be involved with an education

totally wrong. ICTA should spearhead policy issues and not meddle in
procurement woes.

Let me hear from ICTA on strategic initiative rather than wallowing in the
muck of avarice!
