BREAKING: Mike Sonko Steps Aside As Nairobi Senator

Nairobi Senator Mike Sonko has stepped aside to allow investigations into corruption allegations leveled against him to be conducted.

Sonko was among the over 100 people mentioned in the graft list released by the anti-corruption commission yesterday.

Sonko follows suit in the list of some of those who have stepped aside after being implicated.

However, he becomes the first elected leader to pave way for investigations, showing the way for those who have remained adamant that they are elected and will not resign as directed by President Uhuru Kenyatta.

Speaking to Radio Jambo this morning, Sonko said he has taken this noble step because he believes he is not corrupt and he wants the whole process to be done smoothly.

The Senator says he believes in the constitution of Kenya and would not want to contravene it.

All eyes are on the other people implicated. Will they follow suit?
