Mzee Tipos had a prize bull. Sahiwal cross. Almost a tonne in weight. Height of an adult man at the hump, Smooth hide, best in the region. The bull won him awards at the breeders' exhibition. Other farmers line up to have their cows serviced by the bull.

Then misfortune struck. The bull stopped mounting cows. Grazing was was problem. Bull became irritable. It started losing weight.

Mzee Tipos got the best vets available in the county. They prescribed drugs, revolutionary feeds and supplements. But the bulls condition did not improve. It got worse.

After a couple of months as the former prize bull lay emaciated and dying in the pasture. The herdsman made a startling discovery. The bull was infested by parasites. The vet confirmed that indeed parasites had attacked all internal and external organs of the bull including the head, the gut, the feet and the skin. Had the infestation was too severe to be treated.

Despite his love for the Mzee Tipos made the decision to incinerate the bull to put it out of misery and save the rest of the herd from parasites.

KQ is the price bull that got attacked by all manner of parasites... management, staff, tenderprenuers. The company is dead. All prescriptions have failed. But some parasites still hang on even as the company is on the death bed. The only logical approach to get rid of the parasites is to liquidate the company.

i agree with you @Sparkly,but it will be very odd for the country to be without a national courrier.Since it requires much money to resuscitate kq,the alternative is to allow the firm to die then start a new one with a new brand e.g Kenya airlines or Air Kenya.

Put them figures here!
