According to Itumbi, there was a day he witnessed some of the leaders at the State House making plans on how to deny Sonko microphone so that he could not address the public. It left the governor with no option other than forcing things out

"One day, Koinange Jeff, I was present in a car when this so-called "System" called a State MC to deny Mike Sonko the Microphone in a public event. Governor had to stand up to the official bullies and insist on speaking. He is not lying about frustrations by some people," Itumbi noted on Twitter.

Governor Sonko had mentioned that there are some State House leaders, not the President though, that is frustrating his efforts to deliver to the Nairobians. 

He even said that these 'systems'  are the ones that paid Esther Passaris to come and provoke him in public. That led to the stand-off between Sonko and Passaris during the Madaraka Day celebrations.

"These people in the system who are the main financiers of Kieleweke thought am receiving instructions from Tangatanga and DP Ruto to attack the two guys, she (Passaris) was sent(by them) to provoke me for nothing," stated Sonko.
