Raila Odinga’s recent defense of the Adani Group, particularly regarding its potential involvement in Kenya’s Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA), has sparked controversy both in Kenya and India. He praised Adani’s track record in infrastructure projects, referencing his experience in India. However, critics argue that the deal lacks transparency, may risk national assets, and could compromise Kenyan jobs. Indian commentators have expressed concern over the political ramifications, particularly given the ongoing controversies surrounding Adani’s dealings in India.
