Outgoing Nairobi Governor Evansk Kidero has said he has no bad blood with county chief-elect Mike Sonko.
“I have no problem calling you governor because you are now the governor of Nairobi,” he said as he spoke at Uhuru Park during Sonko’s swearing in ceremony.
Kidero and Sonko fought on June 15, 2016 after Sonko, then Senator, accused him of being a murderer.
They almost exchanged blows at a Senate Public Accounts Committee session where Kidero was being quizzed over the county's financial spending for the 2013/14 financial year.
Trouble started when Sonko made a presentation on land rates in Nairobi, which he said were illegal. He appeared as a friend of the committee to table documents on the rates.
