After exchanging brief pleasantries, the caller identifies himself – he is the man in the repatriation WhatsApp group, the one I had given directions to the facility where I got my Covid-19 test on Tuesday. There are no words to describe the shock and utter disappointment I feel as I read message after message. Daniel calls Kenya Airways, who confirm that indeed, there will be no flight on June 12, but “maybe” June 19. Ms Ndinda is Research Manager, Transform Research Africa Ltd. She is stranded in Nigeria, where she has been since March 21. TOMORROW: Our repatriation flight having been postponed with no explanation whatsoever, we have more questions than answers.
