Thursday, January 23,2025 - Nairobi County Senator Edwin Sifuna should start preparing to go home ahead of the 2027 senatorial elections, as he faces fierce competition from newcomers.
On Wednesday, prominent Nairobi lawyer Danstan Omari announced his bid to unseat Sifuna in the 2027 poll."
In
an interview with NTV, Omari did not mince his words as he accused Sifuna of
failing to ensure accountability in the utilization of county funds by Governor
Johnson Sakaja's administration.
"Nairobi needs a solid person to be a senator. Sifuna is a solid person, but there's politics of Nairobi like this;
"In 2013, the first elections under the new
constitution, Kidero was the governor, Sonko became the senator; in 2017, Sonko
became the governor, Sakaja became the senator, in 2022, Sakaja became the
governor, and Sifuna became the senator.
"So this is the time for Sifuna to be the governor.
"Therefore, I will be in the
race to take over from Sifuna because, as lawyers, we are presidents, so in 2032, I will also be the governor of Nairobi," he declared with
confidence.
