Gava suspends car-free days for two weeks

Salazar · January 30, 2019, 2:45pm

The government has suspended the car-free days in the city for another two weeks. Transport CS James Macharia said the suspension is to enable them to vet hawkers and traders so that they are sure who will be occupying the area provided. “The vetting will involve the use of biometrics to identify the hawkers taking into consideration the recent terror attack in DusitD2,” Macharia told the Star.

The decision came after a meeting between the ministry, Nairobi Senator Jonhson Sakaja, Nairobi County officials and hawkers representatives.

On his Twitter feed, Sakaja said he requested for the deferment to allow for more consultation.

Is it possible to remove SONKO as a govenor

He has no deputy governor so you cannot impeach him. The guy is not an ordinary mkora, he’s a crafty of mkora.
But there’s no way he will be re-elected.

Does it mean 5 wasted years for nairobi county ?

MortyTuumbo · January 30, 2019, 4:01pm

I swear this Macharia doesn’t think. Why didn’t he start doing this first instead of running to the media?

Salazar · January 30, 2019, 4:03pm

Impeachment hua ngumu Kenya. Atakimbia tu court ka wengine

Mediocre · January 30, 2019, 4:04pm

Make it 10 wasted years, na watu bado hawaja learn.

kasaman · January 30, 2019, 4:08pm

You are correct 10 year down the sewage line …tulirogwa

Salazar · January 30, 2019, 4:08pm

Everything from passports, ile 1 day matatu ban ya Sonko, BRT to this…nikama they don’t think things through before going to the media.

They shoot first then aim. What a waste.

system · January 30, 2019, 5:13pm

I think that’s just how it is going to be. Nobody can move him from the office.
Don’t quote me on the constitutionality of it because I saw it here on Ktalk. But it kinda makes sense and that’s why I believed it without verifying it

plus the cs transport

KamauLM · January 30, 2019, 6:06pm

Bado kuna 11 DMU trains zinaletwa. Macharia is a good CS, the problem is too much bureaucracy in Nairobi.

Greedy_Genius · January 30, 2019, 6:09pm

Everything is upside down in this country.

WuTang · January 30, 2019, 6:13pm

Macharia ni meffi.

Mediocre · January 30, 2019, 6:21pm

Wewe umekuwa wapi scandal zake zikichambuliwa, you speak as if ulimaliza high school juzi.

Cha muhimu ni alitupea flyover Section 58, Nakuru ata baada ya upinzani toka a local supermarket. Pia Nairobi kuna Ngong Road na flyover Uhuru Highway.
