Roads and Transport Cabinet Secretary Davis Chirchir has established the Aircraft Accident Investigation Team to review past aircraft accidents involving Kenyan-registered or operated planes in South Sudan and Somalia over the past five years.
The team comprises 11 members who have been tasked with five crucial roles as the Ministry aims to prevent similar incidents in the future. "In Exercise of the powers conferred by section 53 (4) of the Civil Aviation Act, the Cabinet Secretary for Roads and Transport establishes the Aircraft Accident Investigation Team," the notice read in part.
It will be led by Peter Maranga as the Chairperson and Fredrick Kabunge as the Co-chairperson, while Fredrick Aggrey will take the role of Vice-chairperson.
