In a statement sent to County Assembly Speaker on Monday evening, Sonko nominated Anne Kananu Mwenda to the position of the deputy governor.
Ms. Anne Kananu Mwenda served as the county Disaster Management and Coordination Chief Officer.
"Given the foregoing, and in the interest of ensuring stability at Kenya’s Capital City and largest County by economy and population, I do hereby nominate Anne Kananu Mwenda to the position of Deputy Governor,” Sonko’s letter read.
The governor said the move was in line with article 180(5) of the Constitution and the Supreme Court Advisory of March 2018.
" In March 2018 the Supreme Court gave an advisory regarding the nomination of a Deputy Governor once vacancy occurs as in the case in Nairobi County,” read the letter in parts.
" As a law-abiding citizen, I will continue to abide by the bail terms granted to me and ensure the operations of the county are not affected in any way,” Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko said.
