The Kenya Tourism Federation (KTF) has escalated a fight against the new park fee payment introduced by the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) to Parliament through a petition now under consideration by the lawmakers.

The federation, which represents key private sector players in the tourism industry, has urged the lawmakers to reverse the decision of KWS to transition from the old eCitizen platform to an upgraded payment system.
