Former Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko. Former Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko’s political career was dead. The High Court in Mombasa yesterday ordered the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) to accept Sonko’s nomination to run for Mombasa governor. The court also ordered the commission to gazette the former Nairobi governor as a contender. After he was impeached as Nairobi governor, Sonko was ostracised by the political elite in the country, including President Kenyatta and Raila.
