Mosiria Responds to Sacking by Sakaja

Geoffrey Mosiria, former Chief Officer for Public Participation, Citizen Engagement, and Customer Service, has responded to his sacking by Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja. Mosiria was relieved of his duties during a cabinet reshuffle at City Hall.

Mosiria alleged that the governor had effectively dismissed him in December 2023, stripping him of his mandate as an Accounting Officer. He claimed to have endured frustrations, public and private attacks, and work-related hurdles during his tenure.

Background

Mosiria's sacking comes barely ten days after he announced his intention to contest the Nairobi gubernatorial seat in the 2027 General Election, placing him in direct competition with Sakaja.
