  • Interior Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki on Tuesday, November 8, moved to enhance security at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA).

    Kindiki was in the company of senior security chiefs, including the Acting Inspector General of  Police, Noor Gabow, and Director of Criminal Investigations, Amin Mohamed. 

    “Interior CS today launched a review and integration of the security and surveillance systems at JKIA and other airports in the country.

    “The integrating targets enhancement of security for travellers, staff and other users of the facilities,” the Ministry of Interior announced on Tuesday, November 7.

    Kindiki later met South Africa’s Minister of Home Affairs, Pakishe Motsoaledi and his Justice and Correctional Services counterpart, Ronald Lamola. 

    The two visited the country ahead of South African President Cyril Ramaphosa’s tour. Ramaphosa was expected to arrive in Kenya on Wednesday, November 9.

    “The talks centred on expediting talks on agreements that target the reciprocity of visa-free entry for citizens of the two countries.

    “Also on the agenda was the strengthening of exchange programs for prisons’ staff, advanced training, research and knowledge-sharing and entrenching cultural and sports ties among the countries’ correctional services,” a statement by the Ministry stated. 

    Meanwhile, in line with the security at JKIA, Kenya made history in the global airport ranking after scoring 91 per cent in an audit by United Nations’ International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) in July 2022. 

    The score, the highest mark ever recorded in Eastern and Central Africa, was credited to the security measures put up at the JKIA and Moi International Airport in Mombasa.

    JKIA and Moi facilities were audited based on the Global Aviation Security Plan (GASeP) developed by the UN agency.
