A section of elected leaders in Nairobi County has vowed to impeach Governor Johnson Sakaja, saying that he is out of touch with the challenges facing the city residents.
In a meeting held at City Hall on Tuesday, the MCAs also accused the county boss of failing to deliver his pledges three years on with stalled projects in the Wards.
Speaking after the meeting, Deputy Minority Leader Waithera Chege said other issues that they deliberated on were failure by the governor to disburse bursaries and the Ward Development Fund, citing that it has not been working. "That is why we have stalled projects, and the residents have been asking questions, the members have also been feeling that the governor is completely out of touch with the ground and MCAs," Waithera, who is the Nairobi South representative, stated "Three-quarters of the Members who call the governor cannot receive their calls or call back, so there are issues of communication between the Executive and the Assembly and his failure to come out on the issue of broad-based government," she added.
The member explained that some issues are supposed to be dealt with by the intergovernmental laws, but Sakaja has failed to offer guidance.
