This was supposed to be the next CEO.... Until the plan was scuttled.
On 29 May 2019, she resigned as CEO of Flybe, with her departure taking effect on 15 July of the same year. The move came folowing recurring financial problems in the company, which will be taken over by Connect Airways, a consortium of Virgin Atlantic, Stobart Air and a US investor.
So Sebastian was/is supposed to remain to work on the nationalisation deal as this lady became CEO.... Is she competent? No. She failed to turnaround Flybe as per the link. Sailing in the same boat with Sebastian.

The cat is out of the bag. I also think the contract with GE to do flight analytics is suspect and must be Clare who connected them. All these Wazungus need to go. I was thinking this Helen is incompetent but can now tell who are the incompetent fellows. MJ also need to go as I am very sure he approved the suspension of Hellen. We need action from KALPA asap. KQ is a total mess.

Kenya Airways chairman calls for professional board after nationalisation
Kenya Airways (KQ) must avoid picking a board packed with politically connected individuals after it is re-nationalised in order to ensure future success, its chairman said on Tuesday. KQ chairman Michael Joseph said the requirement for professionals to be put in charge of the airline is being built into draft laws that will guide the renationalisation. “It must be run in a commercial way,” he told reporters on the sidelines of an aviation meeting. “We do not want to create a situation that we had before, where you nationalise the airline and all it becomes is a department of government. The board of directors is loaded by friends of politicians.” Kenya wants to emulate countries like Ethiopia, which runs air transport assets – from airports to fueling operations – under a single company, using funds from the more profitable parts to support others. Under the model approved by lawmakers, Kenya Airways will become one of four subsidiaries in an Aviation Holding Company. The others will be Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA), the country’s biggest airport, an aviation college and Kenya Airports Authority, which will operate all the nation’s other airports. Wealth is built through a relatively simple equation

KQ should not be making a loss. Mismanagement of the finances is the order of the day and the management shifts the blame to non-issues such as pilots and other unionisable staff. Why should the HR director not sit down with KAWU and negotiate the CBA. Why should the IT director make such decisions where the Company will loose million of shillings. @maka, keep posting the issues here for people to see.

Taking KQ back to State is fine, but why the official opacity? https://www.nation.co.ke...77066-2egcf1/index.html
>>> Seems the nationalisation of KQ is just a matter of time. "...a Bill implementing the nationalisation plan was at an advanced stage of drafting and would be tabled in the House together with others in what is called an “omnibus amendment Bill” next month." "Inexplicably, the task of communicating the complex processes and transactions that must be implemented as part of execution has been left to the chair of the Transport Committee of Parliament, David Psoking, who is not famous for deep domain knowledge and experience in the investment banking and complex debt restructuring area.

There is nothing called long term in NSE. Just note KQ in a span of 10years: from 200.00 to 2bob. Wonders never cease.  Work hard at your job and you can make a living. Work hard on yourself and you can make a fortune.
