In a tweet, which comes after DPP Noordin Haji issued arrest order on Governor Mike Sonko, Junior said the due process should be followed.

According to the son of the former Prime Minister Raila Odinga, the corrupt people will always be cornered.

"Nobody is above the law, Elected leaders are all accountable as per the constitution and to the General public, let the due process prevail and people be brought to account. Masiku Ni Arubaini," he wrote.

According to Haji, he has sufficient evidence to warrant the prosecution of Sonko as well as senior City Hall officials following a review of the investigation file handed to the DPP by the EACC.

"I have ordered for the immediate arrest and arraignment of Sonko and other officials for the crimes of conflict of interest arising from having received money from the county of Nairobi while serving as governor, unlawful acquisition of public property, money laundering and other economic crimes," Haji said.

Mr Sonko has been accusing a section of EACC officers of the witch-hunt, insisting that there is a wider plot to beat him to submission given his fight against corruption.

Junior, has been in recent weeks accusing Sonko of mismanaging Nairobi, raising issues about poor infrastructure and lack of general coordination.
