Sonkonization of Kenyan politics: The rise and fall of Mike Sonko


The Senate on Tuesday officially kicked off impeachment proceedings against Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko. It’s instructive to note that Sonko was voted into office in a rather popular manner, garnering close to a million votes in the 2017 General Election. Gideon Mike Mbuvi, whose political name "Sonko" means ‘rich’ in Sheng, is a man of many shades. It’s noteworthy that Sonko ran on the background of being a ‘makanga’/matatu owner in Buruburu estate within the constituency. Go well Mike Mbuvi Sonko, Nairobi loved you, but the MCAs loved you all the more!
