Published on August 31, 2019, the Director of Criminal Investigations (DCI) had launched investigations into Kenya Airways' financial losses, totaling to 100 billion between 2003 and 2014.

Former Kenya Airways CEO Titus Naikuni, who was at the helm during the period in question, has dared DCI Boss George Kinoti to come and arrest him at his Bisil farm in Kajiado County.

Naikuni, a tall Maasai from Kajiado, claims he has not received any official communication or orders from the DCI over the investigations, and that the allegations of money laundering during his tenure are lies meant to mislead the public.

Naikuni, who joined employment soon after completing his university education in 1970, has been in retirement and is willing to be grilled under a tree in his farm, he said.

Naikuni's statement comes after the DCI said it wants to establish how Kenya's national carrier lost Sh100 billion between 2003 and 2014, the nine years during which he was in charge.
