Senator Mike Mbuvi alias Sonko is one of the most powerful Kamba politicians in this nation.
The outspoken senator has proven to the electorate that he is ready to swim in deeper waters. Sonko accepting to be former Gatanga MP Peter Kenneth will be an insult to the Kamba community.
It will be unfortunate for Sonko to move up and down asking residents to vote for PK when the likes of Dr Mutua Alfred are laying down strategies to rise to presidency in 2022.
If Sonko agrees to be a Deputy Governor when will he become the governor? Deputy Governors have been seen as ceremonial by many leaders.
Without offending anyone, there are many Kenyans who do not know the names of their Deputy Governors. Will he grow politically if he accepts such a deal? Nairobi Governor Evans Kidero knows that Sonko is not a pushover.
A battle between Kidero and Sonko can only be compared to the clash of Titans. If you know how many votes the senator garnered during the last poll then you will understand why Kidero fears him than any other aspirants.
In addition, Sonko has been loyal to his party for long. Even during the hardest moments of his career, the Senator did not distance himself from the party.
