Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko is yet again slated to receive another prestigious award for his humanitarian work.
Sonko has been nominated for the World Humanitarian Awards 2019 that will take place in Los Angeles, USA on 21st and 22nd December.
The prestigious title is conferred on eminent individuals who have worked diligently in their respective fields of expertise and are known for their humanitarian contributions in society.
This comes days after bagging the Governor of the Year award during the 2019 Mashujaa Awards.
He outshines Makueni’s Kivutha Kibwana, Mombasa’s Hassan Joho and Alfred Mutua of Machakos to bag the prestigious award.
In a colorful fete organized by Consortium of University students, Sonko garnered over 250,000 votes from online voters, with Makueni’s Kivutha Kibwana coming second with 110,000 votes.
Mutua came third with 70,000 votes while Joho managed 55,000 votes.
Sonko won on grounds of popularity among the youth, investment in health, sports, infrastructure and his familiarity with problems affecting the youths.
