Soon-to-graduate Mike Sonko says he didn’t study to vie for Nairobi governorship

Sonko and his expected running mate Simon Mbugua will graduate with a BBA degree majoring in marketing. The two enrolled at KEMU in 2013 soon after the General Elections.

KENYA: Nairobi Senator Mike Sonko has dismissed claims that his decision to pursue a university degree was driven by the urge to contest for the city’s governorship.

 

Sonko says he went to school to enhance his skills and not for the sole purpose of contesting for the Nairobi governor seat. "It's not true that I want to be governor of Nairobi and I had to go back to class. This was meant to equip me with more skills," he said during a rehearsal for Friday’s graduation.
