Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja is facing scrutiny from the Senate County Public Accounts Committee over the appointment of seven advisors whose roles allegedly duplicate those of County Executive Committee members.

• The advisors each earn an average of Ksh.203,000, costing taxpayers approximately Ksh.9.7 million.
• Key figures include Governor Johnson Sakaja, Committee Chair Moses Kajwang', and Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna.
• The governor's failure to appear before the committee raises concerns about potential adverse actions, including handover to investigative bodies like the Directorate of Criminal Investigations and the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission.
