A: Adani deals.
Nothing dominated public discourse in Kenya in the final quarter of the year like government deals with India's Adani Group, owned by Gautam Adani, one of the richest men in Asia.
Two deals - one to run Jomo Kenyatta International Airport and another, a public-private partnership with the Ministry of Energy for the firm to operate Ketraco power lines infrastructure - created an uproar after a series of whistleblower revelations.
The deals were eventually cancelled by President William Ruto in late November, a day after Adani had been indicted for fraud in the US B: Broad-based government.
