Thirty two Kenyans are among 157 passengers and crew members who perished on Sunday morning following the crash of a Kenya-bound Boeing 737 Max 8 airplane. Ethiopian Airlines said the plane was flying from Addis Ababa to Nairobi, with 149 passengers and eight crew members on board.
The airlines Group CEO, Mr Tewolde Gebre-Mariam, said Captain Yared Mulugeta, an Ethiopian-born Kenyan national, was a senior pilot, who had been flying the same plane since November 2007.
