The first-term governor was infuriated after an armed gang demolished a church and school in Buruburu phase 4. 

Sonko, who is known for his fiery nature, arrived at the scene of the incident after the gang armed with pangas, axes and other machinery demolished the property in question. 

The governor told the residents that he will not tolerate the behaviour of goons being hired by businessmen and other rich people in Nairobi to frustrate them in any way.

He lost his cool after one of the suspects started arguing with him. He was compelled to slap him to make him silent as he ordered his team to ensure there is law and order at the scene of the incident.

"Just received information that goons armed with Pangas are demolishing a school in Buru Buru phase 4. Since I have a working Government, I find it wrong to expose crude weapons in an estate that has kids. We are informing the OCPD Buru Buru to intervene and disarm the goons. There's a legal way of executing court orders if there are any in this particular case," Sonko stated in a post on his Facebook page.
