Johnson Sakaja among 22 governors that would be sent home if elections were held today.

Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja is among 22 governors who might be dismissed if elections were held today, according to a survey by Research 8020.

According to the survey, 63% of survey respondents from Nairobi County would have voted out Sakaja in an election.

Sakaja’s leadership has encountered several challenges, including reports of him funding individuals to disrupt peaceful protests.

In response to the allegations, Sakaja stated that he could not have been involved, as he was in Mombasa on a weeklong retreat with his Cabinet to plan for the next financial year.

The county leader’s management was also criticized during heavy rainfall that caused significant damage and loss of life.

Recently, on Saturday, August 3, Sakaja encountered hostility during his visit to Toi Market in Kibera after a dawn fire incident.

Other than Nairobi county, other counties that would have had a higher probability of firing their governors include Laikipia, Nyamira, Garissa, Baringo, Nairobi, Nandi, Lamu, Meru, Meru, Kakamega, Kajiado Bomet and Isiolo according to the survey.
