A plane from Lusaka, Zambia headed for Jomo Kenyatta International Airport was forced to land in another country after two failed attempts.
According to data obtained from FlightAware - a global aviation software and data services company - the plane, which was diverted to Tanzania, landed at the Kilimanjaro International Airport (KIA) on the morning of Monday, March 16.


The plane had made two attempts to touch down at JKIA airport but failed due to what experts termed as bad weather.
After touching down in KIA, the plane departed for Nairobi and successfully landed at 10:45 a.m - a forty-minute flight.

The incident took place barely a day after Kenya Meteorological Department warned that a cyclone, which had formed in Madagascar, had begun altering the weather in East Africa.
The weatherman warned that East Africa would see a disruption in rainfall.


"Severe Tropical Cyclone Herold formed just northeast of Madagascar and it’s projected to propagate eastwards. Based on the current position and projected direction for this cyclone, we are expecting a reduction of rainfall tonight and tomorrow.

"Once the cyclone starts to weaken by the end of Wednesday as it moves E by S direction. This Tropical Cyclone Herold is pulling much of the moisture from the Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone at the moment," a statement by Kenya Met reads.

"Rapid convective development suggests that this cyclone will become significantly stronger while heading towards Mauritius," the statement adds.

Meanwhile, on Sunday, March 15, Kenyans.co.ke, in a special research, discovered that JKIA airport had been deserted. The airport, which is the fourth busiest in Africa, possessed empty hallways and lobbies.


The state had earlier that day issued a travel ban on all flights from areas around the world hit by the Coronavirus pandemic and majorly, confirmation of the country's first Covid-19 Coronavirus case on Friday, March 13.

Umekula lunch ya kshs 4000 umekuwa tembo, 😂 wewe sema tu ukweli, wafanyakazi wenzio walikutuma hapo ukawanunulie lunch. Wewe si ndo watchman wa ofisi. Ulitaka nani aende?

Halafu unakuja hapa kujifanya unakula lunch, wakati budget ya nyumbani kwako mwezi mzima ni 1000, unapika sukuma ya mwezi mzima unaweka uvunguni 😂😂😂😂👍🎉🎇🇹🇿
Wewe umezoea sukuma wiki unadhani wote ni kama wewe? Usiniingize kwa umaskini wako tafadhali.

Najua hamjazoea kula heavy lunch like that😂😂😂.

NairobiWalker ebu skia huyu nguruwe haamini mtu anaezakula lunch ya 4,000. Hao wamezoea Rice maharagwe ya 40 bob so akiona mtu ako na lunch bill ya 4000 anadhani huyo jamaa amekula sahani 100 ya Rice maharagwe😂😂
