Why outgoing Kenya Airways CE found top seat too hot to handle
Kenya Airways CE Sebastian Mikosz watched CCTV cameras and witnessed how his workers tried to twist them out of view so they could load tyres into trucks and sneak them out.

Mikosz said the theft of the tyres is a microcosm of the entrenched series of problems afflicting the once Pride of Africa. “These are just tyres but we have the same problem with fuel, with parts,” he reveals.

This, he adds, coupled with internal wrangles contributed immensely to his failed bid to turn around the airline that has been riding through a stormy financial patch for years now. <br/>
