Renovate Majimbo sports ground in Makadara-Imwatok urges Nairobi county assembly.
Nairobi County Assembly Minority Chief Whip Peter Imwatok is pushing for the renovation of the historical Majimbo Sports ground in Nairobi’s Makongeni ward famous for nurturing Kenya’s celebrated talent, to playable standard.
Just like President Uhuru Kenyatta who is using the Nairobi Expressway Highway Highway as his legacy project in his leadership Imwatok who is the area MCA will leave an indelible mark in the lives of the residents in the ward as the architect some of the noble initiatives being implemented in Makongeni ward before the current government, National, Senate and County Assembly Parliaments life come to an end.
In a letter written by Imwatok to the Nairobi County Government (NCC) addressed to the Nairobi Metropolitan Services, said that they have put into consideration the renovation of Majimbo grounds in the sprawling Kaloleni estate.
“I humbly bring to your attention the request from the residents of Kaloleni estate within Makongeni ward to have the Majimbo playground renovated and a section of stadium Road within Agare slum leveled.
The field needs an urgent upgrade so that it may continue to serve residents who are mainly soccer fans and players of great talent . For the said section of the road, it’s currently bumpy and it will help a great deal to have the grader work on it.
“I ask that your office provide us with the graders and rollers to ensure proper workmanship is done,” said Imwatok through the letter addressed to the Director General.
Imwatok who was made the Minority chief whip of the opposition party the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) because of his loyalty and leadership skills will be seeking for a third term after replacing former and the last Nairobi Mayor George Aladwa who rose to be the Makadara constituency Member of Parliament (MP).
Imwatok who enjoys a cordial relationship with the former Prime Minister and the ODM presidential candidate under the Azimio la Umoja coalition ticket Raila Odinga has developed the ward by investing in education through bursaries, infrastructure, sports and negotiating for employment opportunities for several residents.
Imwatok’s exploits as the area MCA, loyalty to Raila and development record as an MCA puts him as the most likely and favourite in making him graduate from a minority chief whip position to a majority leader come in the forthcoming general elections scheduled for August 9th, 2022.
