    "content": "and Governor Sonko about the management of services in Nairobi. That is the law and it says ‘shall;’meaning it is not optional. Therefore, when we start apportioning blame, we will do so as it is. If Nairobi County is contributing 60 per cent of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), the national Government must be seen to be acting and not apportioning blame. Those that I believe are sabotaging governor Sonko must remember that we will deal with them. It is our work to deal with Nairobi because it is the capital city. Lastly, the issue of nomination of Mr. Miguna Miguna is extremely controversial. This is because we do not know the basis on which he was nominated or whether he accepted; we do not know whether he was notified and how the letter is going to be delivered. The Speaker of the Nairobi County Assembly now says that Mr. Miguna Miguna must be vetted to establish whether he is a Kenyan or not. The charade in Nairobi must stop. We cannot continue like this. This is something that we must intervene in as a matter of urgency because I would hate for Nairobi to go the Makueni way. If we are not careful, we will either have a by-election in Nairobi or, alternatively, we will have such a mess that the mandarins and the people who think that Nairobi should no longer be a county will have the fuel to say: “ let us return the functions of Nairobi to the Central Government.” That will never happen for as long as we are here. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
