Nairobi governor Evans Kidero will ruin Nairobi city like Mumias Sugar Company if re-elected governor.
This is according to Nairobi gubernatorial aspirant Peter Kenneth.
“We don’t want Nairobi to be sugar-coated the way Mumias was and when he left it collapsed,” he said.
Kenneth said this while addressing journalists on Sunday after church service in Dagoretti.
However, Kidero responded by asking Kenneth to stick to Nairobi issues, adding that Mumias Sugar made a huge profit of Sh14 billion at the time he was at the helm.
“Kenneth was an assistant minister of Planning and wrote off billions of shillings of debt owed by tea and coffee industries. He did not do the same to the sugar industry and that is why there are problems,” he said as quoted by the Star.
