KQ pilots in fresh threat to down tools over top management

Kenya Airways’ (KQ) pilots have issued a seven-day strike notice, stating that they will cripple operations at the airline if its chief executive Mbuvi Ngunze and chairman Ambassador Dennis Awori do not resign for alleged mismanagement.

The Kenya Airline Pilots Association (Kalpa), a body made up of about 450 pilots, says their members will down their tools beginning October 18th, a move that could cost KQ billions of shillings and inconvenience passengers.
