Nairobi Governor Dr Evans Kidero has hit out at Uhuru regime for protecting Senator Sonko even as he overruns the town with what might be proceeds of drug trafficking.
Dr. Kidero took issue with Sonko Rescue Team, an amorphous outfit running social initiatives in Nairobi’s slums. The group, whose political intentions were laid bare at Kajiado Central after they were caught distributing money to woo voters to elect the JAP candidate, has seen Nairobians increasingly wonder where they get the funds to run their activities.
But it is the silence of the government even as questions after raised over the outfit that has irked the Nairobi governor who now accuse Uhuru regime of complicity in the illegal activities of the group.
“We know that various individuals have been mentioned as drug traffickers. Nobody is asking where the money they are using is coming from. We know that in places such as Colombia, drug cartels attempt to get into positions of authority by using their money to provide services that local authorities are able to provide” said the governor, alluding to the senator.
“Nairobi is the centre of drug trafficking…What happens in Nairobi reminds me of what happened in Colombia,†governor Kidero told a congregation over the weekend.
“In Colombia, when drug lords want to go into government,  they start influencing the common population by parallel provision of services that the government provides,†he added, though he did not mention any names.

I don’t like kidero, but he has raised a genuine point, it is equally evil for anybody to accept blood money. For example for the last 8years Mexico has lost ten thousands of innocent people through drug money, and the beneficiaries of those blood money is the Kenyan people, who again unapologetically sing praises to their drug king sonko. Citizens should know that evil is evil whenever it resides. Kidero him too, has no clean hands from what he did to the sugar farmers in mumias, some people lost their only income which necessitated their early demise. If one steals your healthcare money and you die for not accessing healthcare, that is culpable for your death. So sonko equals to kidero period.

I guess Nairobi is heading the Colombia way,what is happening in Nairobi is clearly questionable but the Uhuru administration is very silent on these.It doesn’t look good at all.

Whatever Sonko is doing may appear good since he helps the poor but what would happen if its true he deals in drugs and by chance he become the president of this country. think about it? Kidero and the rest are also to blame, if the government can provide the services Sonko is providing then what has been holding them back from offering those services to the people. They are the ones giving Sonko the opportunity to even grow bigger.
Demosh says
Even thieves donate huge amounts of money to churches, they are never asked where they got it from. So kidero carry your own cross.

If nobody is concerned of the sources of funds, then the Nairobi Governor should be concerned and get to the bottom of it-Governor is the Governement!
If there is drug trafficing in Nairobi then Governor should be given a chance to fight it

Sonko & his theatrics must not be condoned in a civilized society like ours. Drug deals are a negative both to our economy & the society’s ideals. Those services are only meant to blind the poor into his trap yet he has no single solution to the challenges ailing citizens of this city. The Jubilee Gov’t must come clean on this mess…!
