DNK International By John Asango,Milimani Court.
Former Nairobi county Governor Mike Sonko has maintened that the evidence he has adduced touching on individuals who caused his prosecution remains the truth.
Sonko while being Cross examined by the prosecution told trial judge justice Charles Ondiek that during his defence hearing he provided supporting evidence by way of videos.
He said that the videos played before the court clearly identified individuals who planned how he was removed as a Governor and arraigned in court facing graft charges.
He further told the court, that the impeachment motion by the members of the county assembly was well planned as demonstrated by way of video played before the court.
He said he started fighting corruption in the county way back when he was a senator.
He told the court that he has provided sufficient evidence showing how he has personally fought individuals who were grabbing land in Nairobi.
He defended himself that being a Governor he improved the county’s revenue saying the attempt by the national government seeking to take over some services was rejected by the county.
He said he personally consulted senior lawyers over the move by the national government to take over essential services by county and was advised that there is no legal framework allowing such a move.
The hearing continues tomorrow (Thursday).
