  • A Study of Wilson Airport, Kenya
    IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 21, Issue 8, Ver.1 (Aug. 2016) PP 22-38 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org Effects of Land Use Changes on Airport and Flight Safety; A Study of Wilson Airport, Kenya Paul Muthee Kanyi. Dr. P.K Kamau Prof. C. Mireri Department of Environmental Planning and Management.School of Environmental Studies, Kenyatta, Nairobi, Kenya Abstract:-The aviation sector is one of the most important sectors for any country especially its ability to: promote interconnectedness within countries as well as between countries. However, the sector faces many risks caused by various emergencies and accidents associated with the sector, and much so in the precincts of airports. The impact of these accidents causes monumental social, economic and environmental consequences to victims. The exponential growth of the sector in the country calls for special attention by relevant stakeholders to devise strategies to address disaster preparedness issues. This is especially due to the fact that the country has already experienced a number of aviation disasters and mishaps related to the industry. Consequently, this study sought to assess the effects of land use changes on airport and flight safety at Wilson Airport. This study was carried out at Wilson airport located in Nairobi West. The qualitative design was applied in this study to analyze and describe the effects of land use changes on airport and flight safety in a rapidly growing aviation sector. A total of 216 respondents were targeted by the study (including 150 members of the community, 30 aviation regulators, 30 air operators and 6 service providers) out of which 195 responded (including 132 members of the community, 28 aviation regulators, 29 air operators and 6 service provider) giving a response rate of 90%.

  • How KANU Government Sold Airports
    How KANU government sold Airports By KEN OPALA As far as aviation standards go, Jomo Kenyatta International Airport is a hub of flying. Planes take off and land one after the other, leaving a buzz and hum of smooth travel and an organisation at peace with itself. Yet unknown to the millions of people who use this facility every year, a good chunk of the land that Africa’s busiest airport sits, including a planned runway, is owned by private individuals who can wake up one day and claim their plots. Our investigations have revealed that more than 250 plots have been hived off land belonging to various airports in the country – more than half of them at JKIA – and sold to private individuals, most of it during the era of President Moi. If the demolition of upmarket homes in Nairobi’s Syokimau shocked the nation last November, the grabbing of land belonging to Kenya’s key airports is deeper and unprecedented. This development raises questions about plans by the Kenya Airports Authority — the quasi- statutory corporation in charge of the country’s airspace and air facilities — to expand and modernise its key aviation facilities countrywide, given that private developers have taken up plots earmarked for airport expansion and modernisation. Extensive investigation and examination of documents, The Nairobi Law Monthly can reveal that land merchants have targeted nearly all airports countrywide. Our investigations show that the scandal that was Syokimau stretched beyond the allocation of Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) land to just three parties — Mlolongo Brothers Association, Jumbo Housing and Uungani Settlement Scheme.
