Hundreds of staff at Nairobi's Jomo Kenyatta International Airport began their protest against a planned deal to lease the facility to India's Adani Group for 30 years.
The Kenya Airport Workers Union claims that the deal will lead to job cuts and deteriorating employment conditions, affecting the livelihoods of many workers.
Critics argue that the Adani Group's takeover would prevent taxpayers from benefiting from future profits generated by the airport, which contributes significantly to Kenya's GDP.
The strike severely disrupted operations, causing flight cancellations and leaving passengers stranded as workers vowed to continue until their demands were met.
