The Former Kenyan Prime Minister Raila Odinga has been denied access to VIP section at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA).
On Monday afternoon, Odinga was waiting to board a plane to Kisumu when he was denied access of the VIP lounge at Unit III at the JKIA.
Odinga is now demanding an apology from the highest levels of government following what he described as “ill treatment”.
Airport officials said that they had received a memo from the Secretary to the Cabinet Francis Kimemia listing individuals who should be accorded access to the VIP lounge and Odinga doesn’t appear on the list.
Odinga’s Aide Eliud Owalo said, “It is becoming clearly evident that some people in government with narrow and parochial interests are intent on deploying acts of intimidation reminiscent of the single party era with the false hope that such machinations will make Hon Raila Odinga submissive.”
