Nairobi Governor Anne Kananu has been accused by a section of Members of County Assembly of neglecting Nairobians and incompetence for personal benefits.
According to Waithaka Member of County Assembly Anthony Kiragu, elevating Kananu to be the governor of Nairobi was a mistake that they really regret.
“I think the most unfortunate thing that has ever happened to Nairobi County is the elevation of Anne Kananu as the governor of this city. And it is ironic and funny that she’s going around looking for votes to continue being the governor of this city,” Kiragu claimed.
The legislator alleged that the governor is always seen in bars and nightclubs but not in the office to help the people of Nairobi.
“She is an absentee governor. Kananu is never in the office. She is accused of being a drunkard and that she is always drinking in nightclubs. The bottle she moves around with contains alcohol. We know that and we shall address it. We shall soon discuss this in the Assembly,” he added.
Kiragu has further promised to table a motion to discuss all the problems being caused by what he calls the incompetence of Kananu.
He also called on Kananu to address the issue of Senior Nairobi County Accountant Martha Wambugu and another County Official who were a******d in Dubai while allegedly taking bribes on her behalf.
During the protest of city hall workers last week, the same issues came up and the governor was accused of enjoying her time in Kilifi when she claimed to be in Dubai.
“We saw her photos doing rounds on social media that she is in Dubai. Let her be told that we know she is in Kilifi drinking and enjoying,” one of the worker’s leaders who sought anonymity said.
Their worry is based on the fact that the Nairobi Metropolitan Service (NMS)’s term will soon be coming to an end and they do not know how the county will be run before the next Governor is elected.
Kananu had extended the NMS term by two months, which will be ending next month, to allow General Badi to finish the projects he started.
