After his impeachment bid collapses, Governor Johnson Sakaja seeks to reassure Nairobi residents by shifting focus away from political wrangles and addressing broader issues troubling the city.
He acknowledges the growing frustration among citizens, especially over reports of robbery and lawlessness in several estates, and emphasizes that the county government, in partnership with national security agencies, is working to restore order.
He insists that Nairobi cannot afford to be dragged into endless political battles while ordinary residents continue to suffer from insecurity and service breakdowns.
Sakaja condemns recent cases of vandalism and looting during protests in the city, warning that criminals are taking advantage of political instability to cause fear and destruction.
He stresses that while the right to demonstrate is constitutional, acts of theft and property destruction cannot be tolerated.
He reveals that CCTV surveillance is being used to identify those responsible and promises that the culprits will be brought to justice.
Turning to politics, the governor appeals for calm and dialogue, saying the temporary truce with Members of the County Assembly should be used to prioritize service delivery instead of fueling more instability.
He reminds leaders that constant battles between the executive and the assembly have in the past paralyzed Nairobi, and urges them not to repeat the chaos that followed the impeachment of former governors.
At the heart of his message is a call for unity and stability. He argues that Nairobi’s problems—rising crime, poor waste management, stalled projects, and growing public mistrust—can only be solved if leaders choose to work together instead of holding the city hostage to political brinkmanship.
He vows to use the 60-day window agreed upon after the impeachment drama to release pending bursaries, clear debts owed under the Ward Development Fund, and fast-track stalled projects.
In his address, Sakaja presents himself as a leader who survives a political storm but is now determined to focus on what matters most to residents: safety, stability, and tangible development.
He assures Nairobians that, despite the challenges, his administration is committed to ensuring the capital city does not sink into lawlessness or political chaos.
