The Nairobi gubernatorial debate went down yester night at Daystar University.
The debate brought together four candidates: Miguna Miguna, Peter Kenneth, Mike Sonko and Evans Kidero.
The candidates articulated their plans for Nairobi in areas like health, education and in creating jobs for the youth.
Miguna Miguna said, “I am a leader with integrity and a vision. Kidero on the other hand said, “I am consistent and reliable. Sonko said he is a leader who is in touch with the common mwananchi while Peter Kenneth said he grew up in a Nairobi where facilities worked and that he was going to restore it to its former glory.
All this was not without high flying emotions with the candidates veering off from issues at hand to throw jabs at each other. Some of the punch lines include:
Miguna to PK: I can’t table your academic papers anywhere as they are too bad.
– You have nothing to offer but to sell your beauty.
Sonko to Miguna: You have a deep panga cut on your head that is why you are ever in a cap; you used to break houses
Miguna to Sonko: You are clueless; you think revenue falls from heaven
– Nairobi can’t be entrusted to a mediocre
Netizens were not left behind as they took to twitter to air their thoughts on #GuberbatorialDebate as well as to poke fun on the discourse which was more hilarious than serious.
