Kalonzo says there was a need to know what exactly had been cancelled by Mr Ruto following the State of the Nation Address last week. “Kenyans demand nothing but the truth about the Adani deals. Anything else falls short of Kenyans’ expectations.”
The high court has issued an order stopping Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) from entering into any contract or concession agreements with Adani group of companies.
Justice Bahati Mwamuye said that pending the hearing and determination of the petitions challenging the private partnership said to have been entered by the Government of Kenya and the Adani group, no such purported agreement should commence.
The Judge directed Adani group and Adani Airports Holdings limited to provide documentary evidence that, indeed, the pronouncement by President William Ruto during his state of address that the said concession have been cancelled.
The court further directed the cabinet secretary treasury, the ministry of roads, the management of JKIA, and the Kenya Airports Authority, not to enforce the said private initiated partnership.

The Court’s action arose from the petitioner Tony Gachoka through his lawyers, senior counsels Dr Stephen Kalonzo Musyoka, Kibe Mungai, Eugene Wamalwa, Dan Maanzo, and Ndegwa Njiru who insisted that the petition before should be heard and determination be made.
They told the court that Kenyans, including the petitioners, wanted to know who brought the Adani group to Kenya.
Kalonzo led team said there was a very high level of corruption exhibited during the said award of the contract to revive the JKIA and Energy sector.
According to them, the mere pronouncement by the President that the contract had been cancelled does not hold water without documentation before the court.

The court was told that the announcement by the president came after Adani was indicated in the United States of America for engaging in a high level of corruption involving 265 billion dollars.
The Judge directed that all the respondents in the petition do file their relevant documentation and serve the same to the petitioners and the matter be mentioned on 29th January 2025 for directions.
