Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko is well-known for his flamboyance and lavish living but recently hawk-eyed netizens noticed a flaw in his dressing. The governor was spotted in a ‘fake’ Versace outfit that read ‘Versage’. Interestingly, this is not the first time the governor has been spotted in knock-offs.
When Sonko was giving essentials in Fuata Nyayo and Mukuru Kayaba slums following a fire tragedy, he was also spotted in a ‘fake’ t-shirt. In December 2019 when the governor was arrested in Voi, attention was once again drawn to his clothing but this time for all the right reasons. He had worn a Versace t-shirt which according to global fashion websites went for roughly Sh50,000.
