Azimio One Kenya Alliance spokesperson, Prof. Makau Mutua, has had a nasty exchange of words with Kileleshwa Ward MCA, Robert Alai, regarding Governor Johnson Sakaja’s leadership style.
The two took their war on X (formerly Twitter) on Thursday, where Makau Mutua accused Robert Alai of being part of the mess in the City Hall.
Alai, a renowned blogger, dismissed the claims insisting that his main objective was to defend Nairobi residents.
However, Mutua dared the Kileleshwa MCA to initiate an impeachment motion against Sakaja to prove that he was not part of the problems facing Nairobians.
“Impeach your benefactor, Sakaja Johnson, to prove you aren’t part of the city’s filth. Prove us wrong. Otherwise, keep your beak permanently sealed! And I mean forever,” Mutua said.
In response, Alai faulted Mutua for bringing up the issue of impeachment without understanding how an ouster works.
“If you were a genuine law professor, you’d know how impeachment works, and you’d lead it.
“But since you understand almost nothing about the law, you’re here thinking that impeachment is like smoking cigars,” Alai said.
That notwithstanding, Nairobi Gov Hon Johnson Sakaja is currently embroiled in a political tiff with KK allies especially Members of Parliament from Nairobi county who this week threatened to sponsor an Impeachment motion to impeach the City Boss for failing in his mandate.
One of the thorny issues Sakaja is facing criticism for is the audacity to keep quiet when thousands of Nairobians are being displaced by the ranging floods, properties worth millions of money are being destroyed and people losing lives daily
Also, the youthful governor is facing opposition from Deputy Pres Hon Rigathi Gachagua and the Mt Kenya Region at large where leaders feel that their interests aren’t being addressed which is against the 2022 political campaigns.
