Nairobi Governor-elect Johnson Sakaja has said that he will not entertain corruption cartels who have been running the capital city during his tenure in office.
Sakaja noted that he plans to run a corruption-free government. As such he stated that he is ready to see some culprits lose their jobs.
“My message to them is ‘there is a new sheriff in town, it won’t be business as usual’. We must deliver to Nairobians and they lose their jobs before I lose mine,” said Sakaja.
Furthermore, the governor-elect stated that his government will set up systems to ensure that human interaction with cash is reduced.
As a result, it will ensure there is transparency in all financial procedures.
“E-procurement is something I am very keen on. If you think you are a ‘cartel’ be competitive please. Compete with everyone.” He added.
Likewise, Sakaja reported that people have so many expectations of him, and the county leadership is ready to work with him despite of their political differences.
“I am seeing so many messages from MCA’s across the divide, they are saying ‘let’s work… politics is done’ no one will elect you because you played politics,” he added.
Nonetheless, the governor-elect also shared his political ambitions, saying he always wanted to be a president during his childhood days.
