Sonko draws a pistol to reporters live on National TV

When it comes to showmanship you got to leave it up to one Mike Mbuvi Sonko, Nairobi county senator. Ever since he got into the limelight Mike Sonko as he is popularly referred to has caused ripples and ruffled feathers. From punching iron grills to lying on streets to insulting airport staff in the Hague to putting the very president on loudspeaker while calling him.
Hate him or love him, Mike Sonko is the man that will always be on the news. 
Over the Christmas holidays Sonko was seen on the coast side of Kenya splashing his millions with friends and family. The flamboyant senator says that whoever is uncomfortable with the way he flashes his millions should pound glass and swallow or better still swallow razor blades. In other words the man is not ashamed of showing off his millions to whoever cares to see them. On Facebook recently he showed off his stacks of millions to the awe of  millions of Facebook users. He later posted on Facebook requesting people who had any need to comment and say their needs which he would sort by the end of the day. The post went viral with thousands of likes, comments and shares.
The latest Sonko Saga is one in which he showed up in one of the city funeral homes with his entourage complete with armed bodyguards. This according to security analyst raises very sharp concerns as it is not good for guards not uniformed to display fire arms. Talking to pressmen sonko disclosed that he too is always armed with a gun and he went on to brandish a pistol right in front of the cameras. He argues that he would rather be caught prepared rather that being caught like a sitting duck.
His guards have been accused of intimidating motorists while Sonko drove on the wrong side of the rode as his entourage blared its sirens.
Well hate him or love him, but one thing is clear, sonko is gonna continue springing surprises at us for as long as we have him around.
