"With media teams and the crowd surging around Sonko, his call went through and he put his handset on loudspeaker for those around to hear who he was speaking to. Sonko started in a loud voice: “Mheshimiwa Rais nisamehe kwa kukupigia bila notice, lakini tunaomba usaidizi wako, nyumba zinabomolewa hapa (Honourable President, bear with me for calling without notice, but we seek your intervention, houses are being demolished here).
The voice of President Uhuru was heard asking Sonko: “Wapi huko nyumba zinabomolewa? (Where is the demolition taking place?) Sonko: “Mheshimiwa ni hapa Balozi, South B. Nimejaribu kupigia waziri anayehusika na watu wengine lakini hawachukui simu zao. Tumekushukuru kwa sababu wewe pekee umejibu simu yangu (Your Honour, it’s at Balozi, South B. I had tried to call the minister concerned and other people but they are not picking my calls. I thank you for your the only one who has answered my call)”
To which the President responded: “I am in a meeting right now but the demolition must stop immediately.” With that, Sonko thanked the President and promised to brief him later on what had transpired, before he disconnected the call."
Sonko is a populist, what he did yesterday was clear abuse of his privileges but what i don't understand is how it's UK's fault.
@Mc Reggae....wacha pang'ang'a, tell us how you think the President should have handled the situation.....
