In a significant development, the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) has decided to drop terrorism charges against former Nairobi County Governor Mike Sonko. The case, which was filed in 2021, implicated Sonko along with two others, Mr. Clifford Ouko and Mr. Benjamin Odhiambo.
The decision to drop the charges comes after a thorough review of the evidence and legal considerations. While the specifics of the DPP’s decision have not been publicly disclosed, this development marks a significant shift in the legal proceedings against Sonko and his co-accused.
The dropping of terrorism charges against Sonko represents a significant development in the ongoing legal saga surrounding the former county boss. It remains to be seen how this decision will impact Sonko’s legal standing and future political ambitions, as well as the broader implications for the legal landscape in Kenya.
