MP Kimani Ngunjiri Claims Kenya's Airport Parking in London Was Secretly Sold for Sh7.5 Billion, Lectures President Uhuru

Bahati Member of Parliament Kimani Ngunjiri claims that the Jubilee government secretly sold Kenya's airport parking lot in London, United Kingdom.

Addressing journalists, Ngunjiri says the parking lot given to Kenya by the British government in 1969 was controversially sold for Sh7.5 billion in 2016.

"Our parking in London, which we were given by the Britain government in 1969, was sold at Sh7.5 billion in 2016. It was not given to Kenya Airways, it was given to Kenyans. Who sold it?" Ngunjiri poses.

The Jubilee MP further claims that the national airline, Kenya Airways only owns three aircraft while the rest are owned by other companies.

"Kenyans should know KQ has only three planes, the rest are owned by others. And because KQ has failed, even the direct flight to America has failed," he notes. 

Ngunjiri says KQ currently uses parking lot owned by KLM Royal Dutch Airlines at a fee.

The MP, who was addressing the fight against corruption, has challenged President Kenyatta to explain to Kenyans why public resources are being looted under his watch.

He also wants President Uhuru to tell Kenyans whether Deputy President William Ruto has been involved in corruption as alleged.

"What is the hypocrisy for? You are the only person who can talk and tell us the way forward. Come out and tell us what you know.. If Ruto stole, tell us if it is true. But don't let Kenyans be divided along tribal lines. Don't cheat Kenyans you are uniting them because you are not," seemingly angered Ngunjiri notes.

He also accuses the President of always speaking with bitterness and losing touch with what is happening in the grassroots.

"Hasira ni ya nini...kila pahali umeenda ni hasira (What is the anger for... everywhere you go it's rage)...what is the problem? You have powers, call us tomorrow and see if we will not come... but because you don't want the truth, we could say that is why you don't want to call us," Ngunjiri laments.

"I want to tell you if you don't know what is going on at the grassroots, there is no money. Chinese have come and carried away all the money. I saw even in Njoro they are installing electricity...surely these should be jobs for poor Kenyans..." Ngunjiri says.
