The Kenya Aviation Workers Union (KAWU) has announced plans to stage a seven-day strike notice to protest the planned leasing of Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) to a private operator. The strike threat follows KAWU’s earlier call for the government to halt the leasing process involving Adani Airport Holdings Ltd. The union claims that the government has not adhered to legal requirements for public participation and stakeholders engagement in the leasing process.
