The Government has started the process of renovating the Jomo Kenyatta International airport to address the development of the facility.
This comes after a section of the Airport was seen leaking causing a public uproar on the Aviation infrastructure reliability and quality delivery in passenger operations.
“Over the last 10 years, JKIA has suffered inadequate facility and infrastructure capacity upgrades to the extent that even temporary interventions became permanent solutions hence the current state of affairs in service disruptions”, said Henry Ogoye, CEO/MD at JKIA.
Ogoye further said that the Government has commenced the process of addressing infrastructure development of the facility covering the expansion of the passenger terminal, runway capacity and provision of additional aircraft parking bays beginning this financial year.
He further said that the board and staff of KAP are aligned with the concerns of the public and they will implement the Government civil investing program to facilitate effective delivery.
“The Board, Management and staff of Kenya Airports Authority are aligned with the concerns of the public and are implementing the Government’s civil aviation investing program to facilitate seamless, efficient, and effective service delivery”, added Mr Ogoye.
