Kenya Airways' recent struggles have left many questioning the airline's management and the government's handling of the situation.

According to recent reports, the airline has cancelled over 50 flights in August alone, with some passengers being left stranded in foreign airports.

The airline's management has been accused of poor decision-making, lack of administrative foresight, and pouring taxpayers' money into a sinkhole.

Passengers have been left to deal with the consequences of flight cancellations, including being booked into cholera-endemic hotels and facing the risk of demolition notices on their hotel doors.

Many Kenyans are now questioning whether the airline's management still believes they're the Pride of Africa, and whether the government's support for the airline is justified.

As the situation continues to unfold, one thing is clear: Kenya Airways' decline is a national embarrassment that requires immediate attention and action.
