Nairobi City County governor Mike Sonko is actively looking for someone to replace Polycarp Igathe as his deputy governor after Igathe resigned months ago citing failure to earn Mike Sonko's trust as his reason for resignation.
Mike Sonko on Sunday released a list of 22 candidates seeking the coveted seat. He urged his more than one million followers on Facebook to help him choose an individual who will deputize him and help in service delivery.
Most of the people in the list are election losers from both sides of the political divide with Miguna Miguna, Karen Nyamu, Bishop Margaret Wanjiru, Dennis Waweru, Rachel Shebesh and Simon Mbugua featuring in the list.
The inclusion of Anne Kiguta has sent shock waves in the political scene and the public due to her lack of experience in politics and/or public service.
Here's the full list.
