The Council of Governors (COG) has expressed concerns over the alleged excessive force used by the Office of the Inspector General of Police in an attempt to arrest Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja.

• Governor Sakaja presented himself to Senate leadership, averting a planned arrest after his failure to appear before the Senate's County Public Accounts Committee (CPAC).
• The COG stated that Sakaja's absence was a collective decision due to alleged extortion and intimidation by four members of the CPAC.
• COG Chairperson Ahmed Abdullahi demanded the withdrawal of any arrest warrants or coercive measures against governors pending an impartial resolution.
• The CPAC had summoned 29 governors to appear on Monday, with only three attending and refusing to engage substantively in solidarity with the COG's position.
