Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko has said that his property will also be demolished in the ongoing drive to clear road reserves.
Sonko speaking on Wednesday noted that he was in support of the demolitions on water ways, road reserves and riparian land.
Governor Sonko said that the law should not be applied selectively and he is ready to lead by example stating that even his own property in Buru Buru, which will also be demolished.
“Even myself, there is a land I bought in Buru Buru. About an acre of that land is part of road access and we shall start by demolishing that wall. It does not matter how well connected you are, if you have built on a road reserve or water ways, that structure has to go down,” said Sonko on Thursday.
Sonko noted that he is ready to pay the political price of being a one term governor.
“I have been entrusted with the lives of over six million Kenyans. Let them (tycoons) hate me and say that I will be a one-term Governor, I will not allow impunity to thrive under my watch,” he said.
The City Hall boss vowed to reclaim all grabbed land and public utilities in the county warning that any county or National Environment Management Authority (Nema).
