This was bound to happen. Recall when NARC came in... and KRA tripled collection... from 220B to 700B in a few years.

But you guys said Sonko was crap. He has proven worthy of being called governor so far. Nairobi is definitely cleaner. The traffic is still horrendous and I hope he focus on that too.

Yes I voted for him with my nose pressed... he is still a drug dealer where folks spot him often in Isibania overseeing "imports"  :( Quidriplle revenue does not make him a saint - they are not mutually exclusive. Even Ruto the bloodhound is capable of sterling performance.

Jesus, clearly Robina is no sycophant.  Not good for the old tribal warlords that ask for total unwavering support.

He is doing well especially on garbage given currently there are no plastic bags which were being used by garbage collectors. The lorries are all over daily.

There is nothing much he can do about Nairobi traffic, I would he focus more on garbage, sewers, drainage, dispensaries and build/expand hawkers markets. It is time there is enforced a requirement that all public buildings be multi storeyed given pressure on land. It is economically inefficient to continue having ground floor building in towns all over Kenya.

Nairobi county - and satellite Macha, Kiambu - need to work with GoK to few traffic. Sonko has a mega opportunity which Kidero squandered. It is very doable.

bryan unlike most people I don't have morality/integrity and competence mixed up. Most crooks like Sonko are very capable. I rather have them than a mediocre saint  any day.

That is where we agree fully. I only care about the ability of our thugs (majority of them are) to deliver something to mwananchi at micro-level.

The one thinng I have come to like about him is that he is honest and will do anything to make lives of others better. He has grown from a flasher to a leader. He especially cares for those who are not well off economycally, socially, etc. He shouldnt be in the company of Ruto.
