Nairobi Governor Johnson Johnson Sakaja has expressed confidence that he will be re-elected in the 2027 General Election.
Speaking on Wednesday, December 18, Sakaja said he has met most of his 2022 campaign promises, including the construction of stadiums across the county.
The governor also takes pride in digitising the revenue collection streams in Nairobi, which he said has improved revenue for the county.
Sakaja also highlighted his achievements in the health sector, saying he had established a fully functional Intensive Care Unit (ICU) at Mama Lucy Kibaki Hospital.
"We fully digitized all revenue collection streams. There is no cash policy, and we do not even have a cash office in the county anymore. The next step we will go into starting in January is ‘jitambulishe’. You’ll be able to certify County Government staff online," said Sakaja.With the said achievements, Sakaja dismissed claims by his critics of being a one-term governor, saying many voters in the city have assured him of their support when the elections come.
"Wengi wanasema nitarudi na ngumi ni mbwekse na lazima I work. The beauty of a democracy is that people will choose at that time. I wish I came with my manifesto; I am just ticking the boxes of what we promised," Sakaja added.
