No matter how many litres of water the Nairobi City Water and Sewerage Company tried to pump into this neighbourhood, the residents were never going to get a drop of it because of that blockage. Riding the wave of his landslide victory, Sonko sauntered into City Hall and, in his trademark bravado, promised to “fix” Nairobi. This, he thundered in the glare of television cameras, was unacceptable, and he was going to watch every move every officer at City Hall made. Matatus plying various routes operate from particular spots in the city that, it is assumed, are allocated by City Hall. In collaboration with the Nairobi City Water and Sewerage Company, 20,903 metres of extension piping have been constructed, while the licensing framework for bowsers is under review.
