Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko just like Donald Trump is one leader who will not allow his ego to be pricked easily.
He has now resurfaced with promises to Nairobi residents, four days after Nairobi Metropolitan Services (NMS) General Mohamed Badi impressed President Uhuru Kenyatta with the report of his first 100 days in office,
Indeed Gen Badi has impressed many Nairobeans with what’s he has achieved in just 100 days without unnecessary drama that was common with Sonko.
And to counter NMS and remove some gloss off it, Sonko issued three promises to Nairobi residents aligned with development and infrastructure.
“My administration is renovating City Stadium and will construct 3 other stadia in Kihumbuini Kangemi, Ziwani  Kariokor Ward, and Woodley within 1 year,” Sonko stated.
He also hinted at completing the stalled project at 12,000 capacity Dandora Stadium which amounted to approximately Ksh100 million.
“We’re finalizing the construction of the new Dandora Stadium in Embakasi North Sub-County within 6 months. The FIFA standard stadium will be ready to host local and international football matches,” Sonko tweeted.
The Public Procurement Regulatory Authority (PPRA) halted construction while Dandora Stadium was nearly 80% completed. PPRA alleged that Nairobi County paid Ksh 196 million for overrated work and altered contracts where steel was used instead of concrete supply as outlined.

On Tuesday, June 30, Badi also unveiled several projects he had completed within 100 days, listing supply of water, implementation of Non-Motorized pedestrian walkways along several Nairobi streets, operationalizing 18 ICU, and 50- bed ward at Mama Lucy Kibaki Hospital, procuring four ambulances and repaired 12 others. NMS is also constructing matatu Termini at Desai and Park Road.
NMS took over several key duties from Nairobi County after Sonko signed a Deed of Transfer handing power to the National Government on Tuesday, February 25, 2020.
