Security beefed up at City Hall after threats to councillors
Lord Mayor Adrian Schrinner has warned against Australia following the United States’ path of political violence.
Nairobi County Chief Officer Geoffrey Mosiria has vowed to reveal alleged corruption and poor administration at City Hall, asserting that the county government is not functioning properly despite efforts to silence him. He vowed to expose the "rot" within City Hall, denouncing unnamed individuals attempting to prevent him from speaking out on alleged misconduct within the county administration.
"We are going to unmask the rot in City Hall," Mosiria declared. He challenged Nairobi residents to question the failure of county operations and questioned why he should be prevented from accessing his office. Mosiria also accused an unidentified individual of incompetence and alleged corruption within the county's liquor department, claiming that funds had been embezzled.
"Someone who is incompetent, someone who is suffocating due to corruption and looted money from the liquor department. Now you have the guts to come and attack me," he alleged. Mosiria remained defiant, insisting he would not be intimidated, urging Kenyans to support him as he prepared to expose the alleged wrongdoing at City Hall.
"I cannot be intimidated. You cannot cow me," he stated. While his remarks highlight tensions within Nairobi's county administration, the allegations of corruption and embezzlement remain unverified, and the individuals he accused remain unnamed.
