According to reports by standard media,the Gun Drama between mike sonko and shabesh Was over a Sh8.5 million Range Rover.
Sonko said he had arrived at the club and found Shebesh with a Nairobi County MCA and about
10 people.
“I went into a private cubicle with a lawyer as my people sat at a different corner with their food
and drinks. When I went for a shortcall, one or two of the men who were with her followed me
asking why I had taken away a four wheel drive car that I had bought her,” said Sonko.
Sonko explained the car in question is a Rangerover that he had bought for Shebesh at Sh8.5 million but paid Sh4.5 million.
The sellers of the car later reclaimed it after Sonko failed to pay the balance.
“But you know my friendship with Shebesh ended long time ago and I cannot pay the rest of the money. It was upon her to pay the money.”
He added after the confrontation in the toilet, he decided to drive to Kilimani police station and report a threat to his life.
“I reported the matter without even my bodyguards and supporters knowing and came
back to the club. I then made a post on my Facebook account on the issue, which I think infuriated her and her people,” said Sonko.
Sonko told the club management to ensure his safety because of the threats as he went on with his meeting.
In the Facebook post he said: “I'm just from a funeral of my late family's driver who's been laid
to rest at his family home a few hours ago. After delivering my speech I told the people who
escorted me to the funeral to meet me at my usual joint Azalea (Caribea), Wood Avenue for thanks giving dinner but I'm shocked to find a politician well known to me with his/her 30 people who keep on shouting and threatening
me but all the same I'm playing it cool.”
He said it was after the posting that more of his supporters arrived in buses.
And after a short while, Shebesh’s group confronted his for a while before two shots were fired sending the mood into panic.
Police arrived there minutes later and collected the cartridges. Sonko and Shebesh’s relationship in the city politics has been an on and off issue which has derailed development at large.
Sonko urged police to investigate the matter and take action on those behind it.
