Nairobi Senator Johnson Sakaja has proposed to summon the Nairobi Metropolitan Services (NMS) to the Senate chambers over parking fees levied in the city’s residential areas, terming the move as exploitative.

Sakaja said he had pushed the county’s allocation of funds up from Sh15 billion in 2017 to Sh19 billion in the current financial year which he says should be enough to cushion the county in meeting its needs without overburdening Nairobi residents.
