Hashtag #SonkoStepsDownForPK to was trending in Kenya on Twitter as a result of the false claims, which Sonko dismissed a propaganda.

“Propaganda machinery at work. I’m not stepping down for anyone. Let the Great people of Nairobi decide,” wrote the legislator on his twitter account.

Sonko and Peter Kenneth face each other on Friday, April 21st at the Jubilee nominations for the Nairobi Governor seat. Former Starehe MP Margaret Wanjiru is also in the race to unseat Evans Kidero.

Nairobi needs a brainer and not semi.- illiterates
Hope Nairobians are intelligent enough to realize the likes of Wanjiru's can lead them to nowhere not even to hell
