Pressure is mounting on the Kenya Airports Authority (KAA) to explain why the country's biggest airport still cannot automatically switch on to backup power, in a development that continues to hurt the standing of the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA). 

Over the weekend, as the country experienced another major blackout, KAA said it took up to 20 minutes from 8:00 pm to 8:20 pm to restore power at JKIA, affecting processes such as immigration and baggage handling.
