Igathe is CS material, not deputy governor. Apewe kiti.

The ministry of Nairobi Metropolis in the offing...

That would be a very useless ministry & would just waste public funds. Jubilee at its best.

Igathe is a failure. He should go back to corporate world na aachane na politics. Expecting to find a comfort zone in an elective or political appointed position is akin to finding sand storms in Antarctica. Even ouru has not earned Mashamba's trust and vice versa but they work or seem to work in harmony.

I think Igathe is not used to working under somenone and finds it difficult to fit into a position with no decision making powers unlike what he was used to. He doesnt understand why an MCA has more decision making powers than him

Igathe is no failure. Just like that Uchumi CEO, he has a big card up his sleeve. It's either for CS (but I doubt), UN or a regional CEO of a multinational. Watch this space, nobody just leaves a position of power just like that.

No, it doesn't Mr meanboy

Jus curious

He should have presented his grievances and then give a timeline, if not addressed amicably that's when he should resign. But you can be sure there are dark forces now scheming how to raise funds for '22 and nrb county is a mine field. Such don't want any a Mr. Pamba in the vicinity. But evil shouldn't triumph good. Almost sure he'll be back, watch this space...

Mr Igathe claims to be a "Manager", partnership in performance management is not possible to achieve in under 5 years and particularly, TRUST, which the fellow is yelling about, trust doesnt come easy and it must not come in your special flavor, this is outlined by Prof. Drucker himself in management, any MBA should know this, what is surprising many is that the fellow does not understand sonko, personally if i were igathe, i would have looked for a clever excuse to hide myself while things heat up, but the fellow likes his face soo much on t.v, and i think he wanted his face more on t.v and himself on the mic in occasions etc more than performance! i would have focused on building sonkos trust long term by creating a cheap master-plan to eradicate garbage and just surprise the county on one of the dull morning days with a spotless county, the way kina kidero went with mutungis to the roads but failed, with garbage, am sure a good low cost strategy with excellent logistics can work ama? He is a failure to me and a deserter, should be disciplined or ostracized from Jubilee party for 20 years!

Nairobi metropolitan encompasses the counties of Nairobi Kiambu Machakos and Kajiado. You think all those countiescan cease to exist?

Like it or not Nairobi County is here to stay. With Sonko running it alone. The lacunae in law may not allow him to appoint an assistant formally

Sonko cannot appoint his deputy. It's an elective post not appointment. Only Nairobians can elect the deputy, period.
As for Nairobi Metropolitan, it cannot exist. That would be against the constitution in regards to devolution. No governor can agree plus the court would throw it out of the window asubuhi na mapema. We're stuck with Sonko solo for atleast 2 years, the time it would take to enact and pass that law. The best option that I'm sure the president and his people are working at, is to get Sonko to reject Igathe's resignation and give him what he wants before Jan 31st.
