Just seen a clip of him in Rwanda accompanying UMK during Kagame's swearing in Ceremony. Kweli Mambo yabadilika. Wale wasisema Sonk Hajui Kizungu ole wao. Next trip might to China to negotiate Nbi's rapid transit system. Sonko may surprise everyone. "Things that matter most must never be at the mercy of things that matter least." Goethe

The board of Nairobi Water Company will not be renewing the CEO's contract which expires on 1st Jan 2018, further to that, the board has send the CEO on immediate terminal leave to the expiry of his contract. "The best news I've heard today! Way to go SONKO!“
BBI will solve it :)

Kuna biashara zitakufa Sonko also said they shall license collectors with proper equipment, then change the payment formula from being paid for garbage loaded to being paid for garbage delivered at the dump, so those collectors who dump by the roadside don't get paid. The road into the dump is also to be constructed, during rainy seasons its hell and collectors dump the rubbish just at the entrance To Each His Own

Does this mean we are likely to see the end of home comings, gas guzzlers, bench marking trips abroad, chase cars and other examples of conspicuous consumption? Maybe,just maybe. I suspect this is advice from Igathe and the Corporate world.Doing things within means. Am optimistic. There is a model that has emerged in Counties of fronting a populist and a technocrat pair at the helm and Wananchi seem to have responded bigly. Good examples are: Mombasa, Nyeri, Nairobi, Kiambu etc. It has no basis in law and the Governor still holds all the power. But I hope it works. Nyeri? I thought Nyeri is Vision 2030 technocrat ama?

Yes you are right. His Deputy though is a fairly popular trade unionist. One with a common touch with Wanjiku. I suspect his job will include keeping pesky MCA's pulling in the same direction as the Governor. They made the first Govenor's life hell. "The opposite of a correct statement is a false statement.

This time round they will tread with care. The greatest act of bravery is chancing a fart while suffering from diarrhoea

Interesting times ahead just a different crop of cartels taking over the territory of another, remember Sonko is also a cartel by himself, watch closely as sonko rescue team take over most of the city odd tenders eg cleaning, waste management, water, matatu, and taxi business, the thing is that this cartel is for and by the young guys the city fathers have to take a side seat.
