Forget about Kidero’s grass, Mike Sonko’s new ‘lion-ish’ statue in city centre has completely shocked Nairobians

A statue of a ‘lion’ erected at the city centre has set social media ablaze.

Highlighted by former Capital FM presenter Laura Walubengo with the caption, ‘Why, Sonko, why?’ the statue has gotten city residents talking.

Many have shared hilarious responses posting that the welcoming piece was a far cry from the actual beast and a failed attempt in the beautification of the city.

Others angered by the statue, want it pulled down as a far extended joke and that the county could do better.

Some, however, praised it noting that art was meant to invoke thought and it has done exactly that.

KOT was, however, not having any of if it and parallels with other ‘horrendous art pieces’ sank its fate. This is what some had to say…

But Nairobi look more like a kindergarten lately. I don’t blame @MikeSonko tho he just can’t help it. Si unajua tu wakamba na bright colours— House of Imenti (@Fellowme10) March 6, 2019
