President William Ruto has announced that construction of a new airport to replace Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) will commence in June, with a budget of Ksh180 billion. The project will be funded by the National Infrastructure Fund and private sector investment.

• The new airport construction is set to begin within two months.
• The government has secured sufficient funding for the project from the National Infrastructure Fund and private sector partners.
• President Ruto made the announcement during a meeting with grassroots leaders from Kirinyaga County at State House, Nairobi.

The High Court has upheld a directive banning graffiti, artistic designs, and tinted windows on public service vehicles (PSVs), paving the way for a nationwide crackdown by the National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA).

• The NTSA is now authorized to enforce the ban on decorative artwork on PSVs nationwide.
• The ruling was made by Justice Bahati Mwamuye on Wednesday, April 29.
• The court dismissed a petition that challenged the NTSA's enforcement notice issued last May.
