Kakamega Senator Dr Boni Khalwale has asked Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja to respect and heed Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua's advice on how to deal with matatus in Nairobi.
Speaking in Likuyani constituency yesterday, Khalwale told Sakaja not to answer the DP back but take his call on planned relocation of PSVs from the Central Business District seriously as sustaining a war with the city's multi-billion businesspeople was as good as calling for his impeachment.
"We have been treated to a spat between the DP and governor in the media and there is no way Sakaja can disrespect Gachagua because he is his boss and if the governor in his wisdom decides to listen to the DP the better for him because he is being saved from a looming impeachment sponsored by businesspeople should he make good his plan to block matatus from accessing the CBD," said Khalwale.
