Is there a lounge for use at Nairobi airport by departing BA passengers? - Woman Looking Through the Glass Wall

Travelling as OneWorld Emerald (American Airlines Executive Platinum, if it matters), on British Airways, is there a lounge I will be able to use at Nairobi airport at the beginning of February 2015? According to the oneworld website, the BA lounge at Nairobi is currently closed "Due to fire in main terminal", but this was in 2013; perhaps the website hasn't been updated?

Alternatively, can I use the Swissport lounge there? It looks as if those flying on Qatar Airways (which are a Oneworld partner) are eligible, but it's not a Qatar Airways lounge itself, so I would assume that's not automatic.
