In a shocking and misguided show of power, Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja, bestowed with ensuring a safe and clean environment in the city, on Monday dumped a truck load of garbage outside Stima Plaza, ostensibly to recover debts.

For nearly three days, workers at Stima Plaza, main offices of Kenya Power Company were treated to wafting stench from a mix of garbage and raw sewage.
