Operations at Nairobi's Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) were disrupted as workers protested a proposed 30-year lease agreement with India's Adani Group, involving a $1.85 billion investment to renovate and operate the airport. The deal has sparked fears of job losses and deteriorating working conditions among the Kenya Aviation Workers Union. The high court has temporarily blocked the agreement pending a judicial review, following lawsuits from the Law Society of Kenya and the Kenya Human Rights Commission. Despite the government's defense that the airport needs modernization due to overcapacity, the strike has caused significant flight delays and cancellations, leaving many passengers stranded. The union demands the complete abandonment of the deal and the resignation of key Kenya Airports Authority officials before reconsidering further industrial action.
