Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja appeared before the Milimani High Court today to answer contempt of court proceedings over his alleged failure to appoint a substantive County Secretary, nearly eight months after a December 2025 judgment directed him to do so.
Sakaja, who personally attended the proceedings before Justice Gregory Mutai, did not address the court.
Instead, his lawyer, Adrian Kamotho, told the judge that the governor had taken steps to comply with the judgment by appointing Godfrey Akumali as Acting County Secretary and forwarding his nomination to the Nairobi County Assembly for vetting and approval.
