- Adani Whistleblower Nelson Amenya has made fresh claims about a government plan to hand over a key airport to a Dubai-based firm.
- He suspects that the controversial Indian Adani Group could still be involved, using Dubai as a front.
- Amenya questioned the logic behind using Kenya’s national budget to guarantee such a deal.
- His previous exposé in 2024 forced the cancellation of a secretive lease agreement with Adani.
- The warning comes shortly after Kenya signed a new Ksh193 billion loan agreement with the UAE.
Nelson Amenya, who captured national attention last year for revealing hidden details about the planned lease of JKIA to India’s Adani Group, has now returned with more serious claims. According to him, the Kenyan government could be preparing to transfer control of another major airport to a company based in Dubai.
Possible Adani Comeback Under a New Mask
Although Amenya did not reveal the name of the Dubai company, he strongly hinted that Adani might still be involved behind the scenes. He suggested that Dubai, being a known tax haven, could be used to hide Adani’s continued interest in Kenya’s airport assets.
Public Funds Put at Risk?
Amenya warned that the proposed deal may require Kenya to use its national budget as security. This, he argues, would burden taxpayers unfairly—especially if the investors truly believe the airport is profitable.
“Why would a serious investor need taxpayer backing if the airport has genuine commercial value?” he asked.
History Repeating Itself?
The new alert comes just months after Amenya’s 2024 revelations exposed the shady JKIA deal, sparking national outrage. That earlier plan was cancelled by the government following intense pressure from the public and transparency advocates.
Backlash Forced Ruto to Act
At the time, President William Ruto was forced to pull out of the Adani agreement after it emerged that the group’s directors were facing a multi-billion corruption scandal in the United States. The incident embarrassed the government and raised questions about its foreign investment policies.
Timing Raises More Questions
Amenya’s latest claims have surfaced just days after Kenya received a Ksh193 billion loan from the United Arab Emirates. He believes the timing is suspicious and could be linked to the airport deal he’s warning about.
