” As I was celebrating my birthday with my family earlier today, my mind recalled a story in the year 2008 when flying squad officers led by the so called no nonsense eagle one sprayed bullets to the car the woman behind my success the current first lady of Nairobi was driving,” recalls Nairobi Governor Mike Mbuvi Sonko.
His wife, Primrose Mbuvi, had bought a Range Rover (KAQ 535W) from Deputy President William Ruto through a car dealer, Ng’ang’a Mundia, at Ksh7.5 million.
The car originally belonged to former President Daniel Moi who had decided to dispose of it because it had been involved in an accident.
Sonko recalls that Many people confused the Car Moi had bought after disposing the one inviolved in accuident with the car that was owned and driven by his wife then.
One Saturday morning as Sonko’s wife was driving her children for shopping, she was directed to stop by flying squad officers who she mistook for carjackers.
As she tried to speed off the flying squad officers opened fire randomly at the car and luckily, the car was armoured and nobody was hurt.
Primrose stopped her car after being cornered and all occupants in the car were ordered to alight.
They were all arrested and taken to Buru Buru Police Station and later, she was escorted to her house to collect the vehicle’s ownership documents and was released after verification.
