Whistle-blower Nelson Amenya has vehemently denied claims by former Prime Minister Raila Odinga that he was paid to expose the controversial Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA)-Adani deal.

• Amenya dismissed Odinga's assertions that the 30-year private leasing agreement would bring development, questioning the lack of a proper tendering process for the deal awarded to Adani Group.
• The deal, which involved Adani Group taking control of JKIA for 30 years and investing an estimated Ksh259 billion in infrastructure, was ultimately canceled by President William Ruto's administration on November 21.
• Amenya's exposé in July 2024, based on documents from credible government sources, highlighted the deal's unfair tax implications and lack of transparency, sparking public outrage.
