What you need to know:

  • Top among the conditions is for NMS to henceforth stop executing certain functions which are at the centre of his feud with the national government that he declared in July.
  • Mr Sonko further wants the Major General Mohammed Badi-led office to keep away from pending bills and contracts incurred by City Hall prior to the signing of the Deed of Transfer of Functions in February.

Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko has set out a raft of tough conditions that he wants met before a deal can be struck in the ongoing talks over his dispute with the Nairobi Metropolitan Services (NMS).

This is after the governor agreed to Solicitor General Kennedy Ogeto’s request for a 30-day extension to the ongoing talks over the dispute between City Hall and NMS, which started last month.
