The Kenya Airports Authority (KAA) has appointed Moses Wekesa as its new Chief Executive Officer (CEO), filling a leadership vacancy that has persisted for nearly three years.

• Moses Wekesa, formerly Director of Business Development at KenGen, was selected after a competitive recruitment process.
• The position was left vacant in August 2023 when the previous Managing Director, Alex Gitari, was removed following power outages at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA).
• Wekesa brings extensive experience in infrastructure development and project management, crucial for KAA's ongoing modernization projects.
