Airport workers call off strike after inking return-to-work deal

CS Chirchir, airport workers union say return-to-work deal reached with striking staff

What you need to know:

  • As part of the deal to resume work, the government will pave way for scrutiny of documents detailing the proposed 30-year JKIA lease deal with Indian conglomerate Adani Holdings.

Kenya's airport workers will resume work after inking a return-to-work deal with the government, Transport Cabinet Secretary Davis Chirchir, workers union leader Moss Ndiema and Cotu boss Francis Atwoli have announced. 

This means that normal operations are set to resume at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA), as well as at the airports in Mombasa, Kisumu and Eldoret where passengers were stranded most of Wednesday.
