  • On the 11th of yesterday, strikes were carried out by airport staff at various airports across the country, including Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA), in opposition to the airport’s lease agreement with an Indian company. As a result, the airports were temporarily closed, causing significant disruptions to flight arrivals and departures.
  • The strike was called off last night, and normal operations at the airports have resumed. However, protests against the lease agreement are ongoing, and there remains a possibility that airport functions could be temporarily suspended again due to further strikes. Those planning to use the airports are advised to monitor news reports closely for the time being.
  • Protests related to the strike also took place, leading to clashes with the police. Residents and travelers are strongly urged to stay informed about the latest developments, and in the event that you encounter any demonstrations or gatherings, immediately vacate the area and prioritize your personal safety.
