There have been speculations that Nairobi Senator Mike Mbuvi alias Sonko will join the Machakos governorship race.
If these reports are anything to by, incumbent Dr Alfred Mutua will have sleepless nights. Sonko has not only won the hearts of Machakos residents but also the entire nation. During his reign as the Member of Parliament Makadara, Sonko kept his word by improving their living conditions.
The people of Makadara remember him for establishing various youth projects in the region to help them get a source of livelihood. He also campaigned for the abolishment of the high parking fee in the area, which made him a darling to vehicle operators.
Hate him or love him, Sonko will always fight for the rights of his people. Recently, the outspoken senator was given the mandate as the patron of The Association of People with Dwarfism.
The politician has been very vocal when it comes to matters affecting the common mwananchi. Water has been a serious challenge in this county. With Sonko as the governor, it will not take years to have all homes installed with piped water.
The senator has also solved various land related issues in the Nairobi County. Electing Sonko will make the end of land disputes that have haunted many residents of Machakos County for years.
