Nairobi County Governor Johnson Sakaja before the Senate's Energy Committee on April 1, 2025. [Elvis Ogina, Standard]It is a trite Americanism that “It ain’t over till the fat lady sings.” Another one goes, “It ain’t done, till it’s done!” The Kenya Kwanza Government has not given up on fixing Nairobi, despite the abysmal performance of the UDA governor, Johnson Sakaja, and his strand of Kenya Kwanza in the city. President William Ruto’s National Government and Sakaja’s County Government are now officially working together, “to restore the efficiency and glory of the City of Nairobi.”
