Saboti Member of Parliament Caleb Amisi has slammed Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja for requesting a chapati-making machine from President William Ruto.

The lawmaker, on Tuesday, March 11, in a statement on his official X account, said that Sakaja should be more focused on making more substantial requests to the head of state during his development tour in the country's capital this week.

Amisi said that the governor should be at the forefront to call out for more infrastructural developments such as underground speed train systems, overpass roads, and water points across residences. "A governor of the biggest regional capital city, whose GDP is more or equal to about 15 African countries, boasts of chapatis as his main economic activity and legacy project," he said.
