The cancellation of the Adani contract deal to renovate Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) has not settled well with President William Ruto.
Speaking in Taita Taveta, The President said no one should be glorified for pushing the cancellation of the deal.
Ruto blamed those who were against the Public Private Partnership deal with Adani for lacking any alternative plan for building the airport.
”What gain do you get when you stop the building of an airport in your country?”
The Commander in Chief further added that most probably those who were against the renovation of JKIA have never set foot in an airport.
Ruto affirmed Kenyans that Kenya will build a new airport using a new framework and people who believe in Kenya.
”We may have stopped Adani from building it. I was confident that he was going to build our airport but because if the law that bars us from engaging people who have cases we stopped it,” said Ruto.
