The only African leader Nairobi’s governor Mike Sonko is leading African cities in the General Assembly conference in New York.
Earlier he expressed optimism that the event will come up with resolutions that will help cities especially in the third world countries to develope a road map for sustainable devlopment.
Well he already has a crazy idea he plans to implement in the capital of the country and its giong down whether citizens will accept it or not.
Through a live Facebook video from New York, , US, Sonko indicated that he is planning to borrow from Mombasa’s recent beautification project.
“Juzi nimeona Mombasa manyumba zimepigwa rangi. Lakini Nairobi ukisema watu wapake rangi wataanza demonstrations (I recently saw buildings in Mombasa City repainted. If you order the same in Nairobi, people will take to the streets).
“Lakini ngonjeni nirudi, hizo nyumba mtapiga rangi ama tuwakamate (Once I am back, you will have to repaint those buildings or we will arrest you). There is a by-law on that,” he added.
Do you support the repainting of Nairobi city buildings in theme olours?
