[wanabidii] SENATOR SONKO'S BEHAVIOUR IS A SHAME TO NAIROBI VOTERS

Lister,
 
Party affiliations and Sensationalism (across the divide) has blinded electorates that leadership qualities have taken to the second row during elections hence visionless leadership.
 
The other day when Dr.Kidero allegedly Slapped Hon.Shebesh,arguments rented the air about violence against women, fear of an emerging strong woman etc with Senator Sonko at hand to broker peace between as some leaders preyed for Kidero blood(impeachment ) or atoe kiyu asahamewe!
 
The dust is yet to settle, its yet another story of the two city leaders.
 
Violence is bad (and no argument can out do that),but what is the strength of a woman in Shebesh in terms of family order and leadership to her electors!

I don't envy Senator Sonko's spirit of giving or benevolence but, it's high time we called a spade a spade not a big spoon. Giving or no giving, Sonko is not fit to lead the City as a Senator. His actions speak volumes about his capacity to make sound and effective legislative decisions on behalf of Nairobians in the Senate.

If we put aside the Senator's philanthropic nature, and look at leadership, the affable and generous Sonko is totally unfit for elective office. I'm sure there are hundreds of people he has helped but still feel the Senator has gone overboard. 

From illegally recording a conversation he held with KNUT Secretary General Mudzo Nzili, and insulting radio journalist Carol Muthoko, to assaulting and allegedly dubbing Rachel Shebesh's conversation with the political opposition, it's just too much for a leader. I'm sure; Sonko has violated the law by recording conversations without the other parties' consent. 

Who will trust Sonko when he is out to record even toilet conversations and use it to score political points and fix political opponents? Even President Uhuru Kenyatta and other Jubilee leaders should be very careful with Sonko's surreptitious character.

I'm not an admirer of Rachel Shebesh's political styles, but I think Sonko is out to damage the Women Representative's credibility in the Jubilee government.

I implore Kenyan voters to "THINK TWICE" before they vote. Money is good but Sonko cannot feed the whole nation even for a one-day breakfast. No wonder, Carol Muthoko of Kisii 100, was right for questioning how Sonko intends to ensure that, the people he helps can sustain themselves after his handouts. 

Voters need to vote for men and women who are capable of making sense in leadership as well as sound legislative decisions through effective debate. If we fail to do effective vetting on those vying for elective office, we will continue to be a tired nation in socio- economic development. 

We need to disallow ourselves from being enslaved by rich politicians whom we don't even question the source of their wealth.

As voters, let us not completely lose our moral campus because of poverty. Even if we are needy, it's fair to critically question ourselves whether those we vote for as leaders have what it takes to represent us. Focusing only at what is in their wallets betrays our conscious.
