An explosion at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) on Saturday night prompted a security meeting at State House, attended by Inspector General of Police David Kimaiyo and CID chief Ndegwa Muhoro.
According to Kimaiyo, the meeting was convened for East African security chiefs. Earlier, police had denied that the explosion at a Java House coffee shop was caused by an Improvised Explosive Device (IED). Kimaiyo explained the incident on social media, stating,
"It was not a blast at JKIA but some papers caught fire after a loose light bulb fell into a dustbin that caused panic at Java coffee shop.
The recovered account cited reporting by The Star.
