"I will be a ground governor but my deputy has to be qualified. He has to be a technocrat who will be vetted by the corporate world.
"He should jointly work with me...experienced, from the corporate world and he has to be a PhD holder," he revealed.
When asked whether he would like businessman Jimnah Mbaru as his deputy, Sonko stated that it was up to the corporate world to decide.
