The Nairobi Governor cited 'persistent challenges' as one of the reasons he was considering quitting.

Sonko added that unlike his former deputy Polycarp Igathe, he would consult widely before making the final decision.

The Nairobi City boss made the confession on his Facebook where he also revealed that Interior PS Karanja Kibicho had ordered him to take away the Kenyan flag from his official vehicles.

Sonko, however, clarified that Kibicho's order was not one of the reasons that had driven him to consider quiting.
