The Kenya Electricity Generating Company (KenGen) and Kenya Ports Authority (KPA) have paid a combined Sh11.76 billion of their State-guaranteed loans even as Kenya Airways (KQ) struggles to clear a similar facility.

A budget review by the Controller of Budget for the nine months to March 2026, shows that KPA paid Sh6.77 billion while KenGen settled Sh4.99 billion, reducing their guaranteed loans to Sh39.39 billion and Sh22.39 billion, respectively.
