I think everyone has a story to tell about Kenya Airways. I stopped flying them after a round trip from Harare to Nairobi to New York, and then a local flight to Boston. On my return, I flew from Boston to New York’s JFK Airport, and when I got there to catch my Kenya Airways flight, my name was not on the system, although I had been given a boarding card in Boston. They told me I was not booked to fly that day. I insisted that I was booked and that the flight was about to depart, and that it would be extremely unprofessional for them to handle a passenger like that. They were not even bothered. The flight left without me. They then wanted to put me on another flight, not Kenya Airways but KLM, and downgrade me to economy class. I refused. I had a business class ticket and I was not going to accept a downgrade. Eventually, they rebooked me on a KLM flight from New York to Amsterdam, then Amsterdam to Nairobi, and finally Nairobi to Harare. I spent almost two days travelling because of Kenya Airways. From that moment, I said never again will I fly them, unless there is absolutely no other option. Even when I am invited to speak at conferences and they say I will be flying Kenya Airways, I make it clear that I will not. The problem is not just the mistake, it is the attitude. They are often rude and do not apologise when things go wrong. That is what makes it worse. I hope one day they will change and become a decent airline. We want to support African airlines, but there is a limit. African businesses must learn to treat clients, especially Africans, with respect and dignity. At the moment, it is difficult to point to an African airline that is consistently reliable. Even Ethiopian Airlines, which I often consider our flagship carrier, has its issues, but it does stand out for its extensive network and relative consistency, and it is nowhere near the level of Kenya Airways. The incompetence is on another level.

Bob Collymore with his wealth, money, social status, education level, not to forget his handsomeness, married a lady with two kids. Wewe hapo na boxer moja, unaishi single room Pipeline ama Thika road, no shillings kwa account, huna sura, hata nyumbani huna NYUMBA, you are busy posting on Twitter how you cannot marry a lady with a kid/s. A broke man always has a broke mind.... Its only a fool and a broke man that talks bad about single mums.
