My impeachment is driven by greed and lust for corruption money by MCA’S Sonko tells the senate.

Sonko blames corrupt cartels among Nairobi county MCA’s over his impeachment.

The embattled county boss has tabled documents before the senate where he has implicated a section of Nairobi county MCA’s of siphoning money from the county government’s education kitty to enrich themselves. When he got wind of it and stopped the pipes, the no so honorable members hatched a plan to have him impeached which has culminated in his current predicament at the senate.

In this new twist, Nairobians are now keen to see what the government will do with Sonko’s revelation considering that some of the MCA’S that had been named earlier on in Sonko’s dossier back his stay on top as the county boss.

’It is true Mr Speaker, there are cheques we refused to released because there are some MCA’s who opened a fake educational institution at River Road

This has been happening even during the period under my predecessor. And the institution was called Kobutho. I unearthed this scandal in 2018.

It is a very sad story. The directors of this fake school were wives and relatives of these MCAs. And they were getting cheques from even CDF accounts of various constituencies’’

The county boss has singled out MCA Ogada the mover of the impeachment for engaging in what he called character assassination even when the truth was out for all to see.

’In Cooperative Bank we obtained 129 image cheques drawn in favour of this fake school which does not exist. Investigators are saying “we further established the suspects obtained money from county govt up to the tune of Ksh 4.5 million.’  Added Governor Sonko.

Mr Emmanuel Kenga takes the stand

Earlier on Mr Emmanuel Kenga took the witness stand to testify on the authencitiy of some of the signatures used to validate Sonkos impeachement.

The expert revealed before the senate that some of the handwritings were done by the same person and were identical thus sanitizing Sonko’s  claims that some were forged.

Ashioya: And what was your conclusion?

 Kenga: My conclusion is that serial no. 3, 4, 9, 20, 69…this writing were made with the same author.

The senate is on its second day of hearing where it  is expected to deliver a verdict whether Sonko will be impeached or saved.
