NAIROBI - Kenya has given loss-making national carrier Kenya Airways a Sh4.2 billion ($43 million) loan to help turn the business around, the head of parliament's Budget Committee said.
The airline was "facing challenges" from a drop in revenue related to the Ebola epidemic and a slump in tourism, Mutava Musyimi, chairman of the Budget and Appropriations Committee, said in a report presented to parliament late on Wednesday.
