Keyamo said: “Please, I want to beg the labour leaders to leave aviation alone. You cannot target aviation in trying to address your grievances. In targeting the aviation industry, you are targeting a global village. I am addressing the labour leaders across the country: do not allow the Labour Party (LP) to destroy the labour movement.”
