An angry Omanga wondered why the governor took such a drastic move yet she had the necessary licenses for operating the businesses.
She has termed the move by the governor as illegal and unjustified.
She further alleged that Sakaja could have taken the decision following Omanga’s move to criticize and mock Sakaja following the auditor general’s report on Nairobi County.
“I am utterly disgusted by the wanton looting and pilfering of Nairobi County finances through exorbitant legal fees paid to lawyers as contained in the latest Auditor-General’s report. We were told, “Let’s Make Nairobi Work”! Is this the way to do it? Nairobi deserves better!!!,” she said.
She intimated that the governor could have been unhappy by her postings on social media recently.
Omanga has further said that she would not allow to be bullied and intimidated asking the governor to keep off her businesses.
