An anti-corruption court has for the second time issued an order requiring the ATPU to produce former Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko in court on Thursday for the hearing of his Sh14 million graft case. Magistrate Peter Ooko had issued a production order through the OCS Anti-terror Police Unit requiring the attendance of Sonko in court today. In the case, Sonko is facing corruption charges involving a Sh14.1 million tender for heavy equipment. Sonko is also expected to appear in court on the same date in another corruption case he is facing before Anti-corruption Magistrate Douglas Ogoti. The directive followed after Special Prosecutor Taib Ali Taib raised doubts regarding Sonko’s health after he failed to show up in court.
