Mike Sonko has come from way too far. From a hustler who started his business of hawking in Mombasa to a flamboyant businessman who has not only used his wealth for his personal benefit; but also in helping the jobless youths in most of Nairobi ghetto areas.
Anyway, thanks to a new post shared by the Nairobi governor, he goes on to advice his followers on the importance of not giving up. Through his Instagram page the trendy MP went on to reveal that he has never given up on life; and this is why he has managed to come this far.
He went on to open up about this in a detailed post where he wrote;

Good morning dear brothers and sisters.
As Celine Dion would sing, a new day has come. How has your day started? I know times can be tough. There is that challenge each day brings with it. Maybe you are looking for a job that seems so hard to find, or have applied for that promotion but its not forthcoming, don’t you dare give up. I never give up and if you are my friend, I beg you to keep going.

We all stumble
Having seen so many youths and young families suffer during this pandemic; Sonko went on that he too breaks down and cries when he hits the wall.
Judging from the rest of the message, I bet Sonko has been witnessing most youths visit his office for donations; hence reminding him of the life he once lived. The stylish MP went on to add;
Sometimes you may look at my life and think it has been smooth sailing. That is far from the truth. There have been tough times, there are times I have closed myself in a room and shed tears wondering how tomorrow would be, but guess what I have never given up!
You see, nobody’s journey is seamless or smooth. Not even Barrack Obama, Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, or Abraham Lincoln or Nelson Mandela or whoever that person you idolize. We all stumble. We all have setbacks. There are times when things will go wrong, there are those times when you will hit a dead end. But remember dear friend, when that time comes, realize it’s just life’s way of saying, “time to change course.”
In conclusion, life will never be fair as it has it’s ups and downs. However choosing to give up will not help in any way. He went on to conclude saying;
In every failure, in every crisis, in every difficult time, I ask myself “what is this here to teach me? As soon as I get the lesson, I get to move on. I get to make wiser decisions, I get to be at peace with the world, I get to be a person’s role model, and I get to be a friend you can always talk to. Kila wakati sio siasa. Kweli rongo?
