Sonko ready to help Igathe capture Nairobi

Former Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko has said that he has no problem helping Polycarp Igathe in his gubernatorial campaigns for the Nairobi seat.

Sonko on Sunday said that Igathe quit his role at City Hall because “he could not handle pressure,”.

Despite the two partying ways in 2018, Sonko says that they are still friends and he is ready to help when needed.

He said he was still consulting with Igathe even after he resigned as deputy governor.

The former Nairobi Governor noted that Igathe was under pressure and that is why he resigned.

“We have been friends even after he resigned. We have been talking even now we are talking,” Sonko said.

Sonko also denounced claims that he did not involve Igathe during the appointment of County Executive Members.

“Igathe was fully involved and there were ministers who were his appointees,” Sonko said.

“He is my good friend, I wish him well na since ni candidate wa Azimio any time I will go and campaign for him.”

Sonko’s remarks come after the Azimio-One Kenya Alliance officially unveiled its political lineup for Nairobi
