A group of Kenyan lawmakers has urged Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja and Members of the Nairobi County Assembly (MCAs) to resolve their grievances through dialogue, warning that an impeachment battle could return Nairobi to the era of the Nairobi Metropolitan Service (NMS).

• MPs commended President William Ruto and Raila Odinga for intervening to persuade MCAs to drop a motion.
• Led by Mathare MP Antony Oluoch, the lawmakers cautioned that renewed impeachment calls could stall Nairobi's development, potentially forcing the national government to intervene as it did with the NMS during former Governor Mike Sonko's impeachment.
• The leaders emphasized using the agreed-upon 60-day window for dialogue, citing Article 187 of the Kenyan Constitution, 2010, as the legal framework for transferring county functions to the national government if necessary.

Former Senior Economic Advisor Moses Kuria has warned that increased insecurity in Nairobi's Central Business District (CBD) is jeopardizing the city's economy and scaring away international investors. Reports of gangs attacking and robbing individuals, particularly at night, have gone viral, sparking widespread concern among residents and leaders.

• Insecurity claims in Nairobi's CBD involve theft of phones, handbags, and valuables, often with violence.
• Moses Kuria, who resigned from government in July 2025, states that unchecked insecurity will harm the city's economy, international investment, and revenue.
• Nairobi County Chief Officer for Environment Geoffrey Mosiria acknowledged the rising insecurity, stating the county is collaborating with the National Police Service to restore order.

Nairobi County's Chief Environment Officer, Geoffrey Mosira, has advised residents to wear facemasks when visiting CBD, Woodley in Kibra, and Juja Road due to dangerously high levels of air pollution. Air quality monitoring machines in these areas have detected unsafe pollution levels, raising concerns about increased respiratory diseases.

• Nairobi was recently ranked the second most air-polluted city globally in August by IQAir.
• Geoffrey Mosira, Chief Environment Officer for Nairobi County, urged mask usage.
• The county has installed 87 air quality monitoring machines and is urging residents to check air quality on the Nairobi County website.
