The Kenya Airports Authority (KAA) has come under fire following allegations of missing crucial land records, barring the expansion of Malindi Airport.
Appearing before the National Assembly's Public Investments Committee on Tuesday, May 13, KAA officials were put to task to explain how the public land was handed to private operators without requisite approval.
At the centre of the grilling was KAA's inability to repossess land earmarked for Malindi Airport, which is currently under the occupation of a church and a jet fuel depot.
During the meeting, the legislators accused KAA of administrative failures by declining to explain how it could not account for the 100-acre land meant for the expansion of the coastal airport.
