Will Mike Sonko be Smoked Out Today?

Will Kiambu Governor Survive the Latest Expose?

Update: Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko has been impeached, 88 MCAs just voted for the motion.

Mike Sonko

The embattled Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko will know his fate today as the motion to oust his is set to be tabled before the Nairobi county assembly.

This comes at a time that Mike Sonko flew out dozens of MCAs allied to him to his Mombasa palatial Homes in a scheme to scuttle the motion.

At least 38 MCAs allied to the governor left Nairobi for Mombasa Monday evening soon after the chaotic press briefing at Riverside.

The pro-Sonko ward representatives have been moving from one hideout to the other as they wait for the D-Day.

“The MCAs on Monday evening went straight to Ukunda after leaving Nairobi. On Tuesday, one section proceeded to English Point Marina while another went to Salama Bling Beach Resort. They will then head back to Ukunda ahead of Thursday’s D-day. The whole point of hopping from one place to another is to avoid being tracked,” an anonymous source was quoted by a local daily.

Another source confirmed that the MCAs are in Mombasa where the governor is keeping a close eye on them and moving them from one place to another to avoid being tracked by the police.

“They have together with the governor chosen to keep the identity of their location a secret so as to avoid being tracked. The idea of going to Mombasa is to ensure that their votes are not manipulated in favour of the ouster motion. They want to make it clear and prove to Sonko that they did not vote to impeach him because the governor and his team will be monitoring how they vote,” added the source.

The intricate plan is part of a plot by governor Sonko to shoot down his impending motion should it be tabled before the assembly today.

The scheme is aimed at denying the assembly the required two-thirds majority vote that will see him removed as Nairobi’s second governor.

The MCAs have switched off their mobile phones and have been unreachable for three days now.

For the censure motion to succeed, 82 MCAs out of the 122 at the assembly need to vote in favour of the motion.

On Thursday last week, a total of 86 MCAs, 47 from ODM and 39 from Jubilee, appended their signature on the notice of impeachment motion.

However, the number has now reduced to 119 MCAs after three pro-Sonko MCAs – Ann Thumbi, Silvia Museiya and Millicent Jagero – were on Tuesday suspended by the Jubilee Party for three months meaning they will not be able to vote.

This now means the required threshold is now 80 MCAs.

According to the governor’s camp, they are assured of at least 67 MCAs on their side which will mean that the motion by Minority Leader Michael Ogada will be defeated.

“I can tell you without fear or favour that the impeachment will flop as it lacks the blessings from either of our top party leaders. There is no party position concerning the impeachment as our party leader has not told us anything on the same,” Imara Daima ODM MCA Kennedy Obuya said

Last year December, fearing that an impeachment motion against him was about to be introduced after his arrest and subsequently being barred from City Hall office, Sonko hatched a plan to fly out 18 MCAs to the United Arabs Emirate (UAE) in a bid to frustrate any impeachment plan.

Deputy Minority Whip Moses Ogeto however, said they are still determined to send the county boss home and that will be manifested through the debate of the motion today.

“I do not see a big fuss where the MCAs will be voting from as the assembly has given members the option of voting virtually using zoom in adherence to the current Covid-19 measures,” said Mr Ogeto.

On his part, Minority Whip Peter Imwatok put up a brave face saying that as far as he knows, no member of ODM party is in Mombasa as he has been keeping tabs on his members.

“I don’t know any member of mine who is in Mombasa. All ODM MCAs are in Nairobi and I have spoken to them one by one. Maybe those from the Jubilee faction are the ones in Mombasa,” he said.

Governor Sonko is facing four grounds for his removal from office including gross violation of the Constitution and other laws, abuse of office, committing a crime under national and international laws and lacking the mental capability to run the county government.

If the censure motion succeeds then Speaker Benson Mutura will then inform the Speaker of the Senate Kenneth Lusaka of that resolution within two days.

The matter will then be taken over by the Senate provided the governor does not go to court to challenge his impeachment.

If the resolution is upheld by the Senate, then Speaker Mutura will then act as Nairobi’s governor for 60 days before a by-election is held.
