A Petitioner has moved to Court suing Adani Airport Holdings Limited over its attempt to Expand Jomo Kenyatta International Airport.

Isack Lango Guyo moved to Milimani Law Courts, asking the court to nullify all proceedings and agreements related to the project by Adani Project Holdings.

According to Guyo, the proposed expansion could potentially confer significant control over airport operations to the Adani Group, including the authority to determine user fees, which could have consequential impacts on airlines and passengers.

He alleges that there was no public participation in the project and transparency thereby infringing the Constitution.

“This court should declare the entire transaction including the privately initiated proposed by Adani Project Holdings and all the attendant processes related thereto as unconstitutional, null and void,” Guyo states in the court documents.

He argues that the project at JKIA is marked by severe breaches of the Constitution adding that the exclusion of the public from the transaction and the lack of transparency and accountability is a serious violation of the Constitution.

He argues that the Proposal raises numerous concerns at the transactional level, including the potential transfer of title to the proponent, the aggressive required Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of 18 per cent, the project hand-back mechanisms, the financing structure, and implications.

He says the process is suspicious due to the fast-tracked nature of the transaction.
