On 22 May 2018, Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko was seen conducting official county business from his home in Machakos County, a move that signaled a shift in where he was handling his day-to-day operations.
The development stood out because Sonko was serving as Nairobi governor at the time, yet his working base had been moved away from City Hall and into a private residence in Machakos. The video attached to the original report showed him receiving visitors and carrying out what appeared to be official duties from that location.
The source material did not provide a formal explanation from Sonko for why the office had been shifted, and it did not include any denial or clarification from county officials. It also did not state whether the arrangement was temporary or permanent.
The report was published as a short video item and linked to a YouTube source. The archive date, 22 May 2018, is preserved here for reference.
