Strike brings Kenya's main international airport to a standstill
Kenya airport strike

HUNDREDS of workers at Kenya’s main international airport demonstrated today against a planned deal between the government and a foreign investor. 

Planes have remained grounded, with hundreds of passengers stranded at the airport.

The government has said that the build-and-operate agreement with India’s Adani Group would see the Jomo Kenyatta International airport modernised and an additional runway and terminal constructed, in exchange for the group running the airport for 30 years.
