This is what Nairobians told Igathe on his exit
Former Nairobi deputy governor Polycarp Igathe on Wednesday vacated his position at City Hall on the expiry of his resignation notice.
“It has been a great pleasure serving Nairobians & I will continue to serve as an advisor, beyond my previous position of Nairobi County Deputy Governor.” he tweeted.
The replies on the tweet quickly took an interesting turn as some users told him no one required his advice.
@KiambaReloaded replied, “Just go home.”
@georgemugwanja commented, “You would have pleaded temporary insanity and gone back to work. Kudos I admire your courage, not many like you around.”
@DennisOdera5 added, “Sawa tu. Just go n keep your advice.”
@Dmx254 wrote, “Advisor to who? Go advice Kalonzo.”
@SladeHumphrey replied, “Polycarp it will be a tough one for you to be an advisor to the same people who you could not agree. All the same best of luck.”
