President Ruto and Governor Sakaja Defend Nairobi Cooperation Deal Amid Support and Legal Challenges - February 2026
President Ruto has defended a cooperation deal concerning Nairobi, highlighting its importance for national development. Despite previous intentions to impeach Nairobi Governor Sakaja, a majority of ward representatives have now declared their support for him and his collaboration with President William Ruto. COTU Secretary General Francis Atwoli also publicly endorsed the agreement between the Nairobi County Government and the National Government, believing it is crucial for development. However, the deal faces opposition as two Nairobi residents have filed a lawsuit seeking to nullify the cooperation agreement signed yesterday. The agreement has sparked discussions about whether it signifies a surrender of power to the state.
