Court suspends transfer of Ksh27B from Nairobi County to NMS

The High Court in Nairobi has suspended the transfer of Ksh27 billion from the Nairobi County to Nairobi Metropolitan Services (NMS) for 10 days.

This comes at a time the troubled Nairobi governor Mike Sonko is complicated in a struggle with NMS boss Major General Mohamed Badi, with the former accusing the latter of trespassing his powers.

As a result, Sonko refused to sign budgetary allocation to NMS, that has paralyzed some services offered by the entity.

 

Sonko was recently impeached by MCAs on grounds of among others gross violation of the Constitution, graft and abuse of office.

Following the impeachment, the Senate has been recalled for a special sitting on Wednesday to consider the impeachment of Sonko.*Court suspends transfer of Ksh27B  from Nairobi County to NMS*
