Former Kakamega Senator Boni Khalwale on Wednesday morning found himself in a hard tussle with netizens after he urged the state to urgently merge the operations of Kenya Airways with Jomo Kenyatta International airport.
Khalwale argued that Kenya Airways survival is under the biggest threat from other Airlines. He further argues that Ethiopian , Quatar, Emirates,Turkish and Rwandese Airlines are financially stable and are a threat to survival of Kenya Airways.
The Ford Kenya Party leader says the airlines are financially stable due to their merger with their National airports.
However, his calls received a backlash as Kenyans on twitter turned against him, roasting him for what they termed as ignorance.
They blasted him for comparing the airlines that are fully owned by states to a privately owned Kenya Airways which he wants merged with JKIA.
Here are some of the heated reactions.
