Nairobi governor, Johnson Sakaja, is arguably one of the coolest politicians the country has been blessed with.
This week, a throwback video of him emerged while he was on a brief interview when one of the reporters asked him to sing a verse of one of Nyashinski's songs,
Sakaja without further ado proceeded to freestyle 'Kebs', one of the artistes most popular songs.
Check out the video below;
Kenyans were largely impressed by the politician's freestyling. Some of those comments are below;

Despite Hon Johnson Sakaja being into politics, it is known that he also showed interest in music, not forgetting he was a rapper while in campus.
He dropped a new gengetone freestyle when rumours spread of his name missing in the University Of Nairobi graduation booklet.
Sakaja and Nyashinski have had very a close friendship, with Sakaja previously saying Nyashinski was an artist that he admired and listened to.
In a past interview, the father of two explained the bromance the two share saying;
“Tulikuwa wasani pamoja. We met back in high school, he was in Nairobi School and I was in Lenana School. He is a very good friend of mine and a great artiste that I deeply admire. He is very talented, and he is the only artiste that performed at my inauguration,” said Sakaja.
The tall dark-skinned leader affirmed the statement above by only allowing Nyashinski to be the only musician performing at his inauguration.
The rapper didn't disappoint and brought Nairobi to a standstill with his fire performance at the swearing-in ceremony something the Nairobi leader noted with praise.
“I was extremely happy that he did, and it was quite an honour. He is a true friend, even outside the political circle, he is someone with whom I interact every now and then,” he added.
Apart from mutual respect for each other, the two comrades even talk about affairs that are unrelated to music.
