Nairobi senator Mike Mbuvi Sonko, has found himself in trouble after hulling insults to renowned radio personality Caroline Mutoko live on air.
The Coalition on Violence Against Women (COVAW) is said to be fronting calls to push Sonko out of office for what they term as lack of morals as well as setting a bad precedent to the youths.
The coalition is also calling for immediate resignation of Nairobi Governor Evans Kidero for serving Rachel Shebesh, Nairobi's women representative, what has come to be known as the 'gubernatorial slap'.
COVAW condemned Sonko's utterances directed to Mutoko saying it amounted to gross misconduct as well as abuse of office. They also called on the senate to institute a process to see that Sonko just like his counterpart, Governor Kidero, is removed from office.
"The senator's behavior demonstrates lack of respect for women, and an absence of civility and decorum on his part. His vulgarity live on the radio listened to by the whole country including children bespeaks a man who has forgotten that as a state officer he is to lead by example", the organization said.
