NAIROBI (Reuters) - Members of Kenya's aviation workers' union have agreed to resume work after spending the day on strike, the head of the country's umbrella trade union organisation said on Wednesday.

Francis Atwoli, secretary general of the Central Organisation of Trade Unions, said the aviation workers' union and the government had agreed that no one who participated in the strike would be victimised.
