Sonko Rescue Team

Sonko Rescue Team is an initiative by the Nairobi County senator, Hon. Mike Mbuvi Sonko. It is designed to enhance service delivery to the residents of Nairobi City County, as a fulfillment to the campaign promises made to the constituents during the run-up to the 2013 general elections. The program is also the Hon. Senator’s way of showing his gratitude to the constituents who had faith in him to elect him as their leader.

The county government is yet to launch any medical or disaster management program with a quick response team despite the millions collected from the residents in taxes. This is what prodded the noble senator to conjure up an idea of creating a rapid response team to provide the necessary services to the residents of Nairobi County free of charge. The project is financed by the Hon. Senator and sustained by the proceeds from the seven PSV buses he donated to the project. The Hon. Senator is on record calling on all stakeholders involved in the development of Nairobi City County, including both the national and the county governments to embrace the project to ensure its success.
