Sonko Rescue Team Takes Down Posters Put Up by Politicians in Nairobi CBD

Nairobi Governor-elect Mike Sonko's Non-Governmental Organization (NGO), Sonko Rescue Team, on Tuesday embarked on a clean-up exercise of the Nairobi CBD area.

Dozens of youth from the NGO were seen along Nairobi's Moi Avenue taking down posters that were put up by politicians during the 2017 election campaigns.

Activist Boniface Mwangi, similarly, engaged his followers to pull down his posters from the city over the weekend.

Mr Mwangi lost in his bid for the Starehe parliamentary seat to Jubilee candidate Charles Njagua Kanyi who had 61,262 votes compared to his 15,877.
