The Nairobi Governor Sonko has accused the Star of spreading malicious claims with regard to his HIV status. The Star had claimed that he had been released from Shimo La Tewa prison because he was HIV positive.
He stated that the contents of the said publication alluded that he is a fugitive hence not fit to hold public office.

He declared he is HIV negative and has produced medical reports to support his position.
