By MAGESHA NGWIRIMore by this AuthorIn November 2016, former Murang’a Senator Kembi Gitura proposed a bill that would amend the Constitution to allow for the dissolution of Nairobi County and replace it with an administration under the National Government. Mr Gitura’s proposal was that Nairobi should cease to be a county. Instead, it would be a metropolis without a governor, senator or members of county assembly. In light of what has happened in Nairobi County affairs since then, Mr Gitura’s reasoning was far-sighted. He argued that because the capital city was the seat of government, it should not be left to politicians to manage its affairs.
