Ruto Wants To Sell Kenya Airways to Delta Air Lines Inc- It Doesn’t Make Any Profit!!

Monday, December 19, 2022-Talks are at an advanced stage between Kenya Government and United States’s Delta Air in a bid to buy a stake at troubled Kenya Airways.

President William Ruto’s government wants to sell a 48.9 percent stake in Kenya Airways to Delta Air.

The President held a meeting with delta executives last Thursday and told them he is selling Kenya Airways.

“I’m willing to sell the whole of Kenya Airways Plc,” Dr. Ruto told Bloomberg News on the sidelines of the US-Africa Leaders Summit in Washington DC on Friday. “I’m not in the business of running an airline that just has a Kenyan flag, that’s not my business,”

US President Joe Biden last week hosted the US-Africa summit and will discuss the 2023 elections and democracy in the continent with about 50 African Heads of State.

Over 300 American and African companies met with heads of different delegations to talk about investments in critical sectors, the White House said last week.
