Sonko reveals plan to introduce dog meat market in Nairobi, Kenyans react
Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko has revealed a plan that will see dog meat is available for sale and purchase in Nairobi.
While sharing a video footage of a dogโs market, seemingly in a foreign country, on his Facebook page, Sonko said time was nigh to have a dog’s market so that those eating its meat will have a bite of their delicacy.
โWe are in the process of identifying a market for stray dogs in Nairobi where we shall be recruiting and bringing together all the dog eating nationalities and open for them a koroga club where they’ll be buying slaughtered stray dogs ready for cooking or eating,โ wrote Sonko.
Dog meat is a common delicacy in countries such as China, Switzerland, and South Korea among others. In West Africa, Nigeria is among the countries that also enjoy the said pet meat.
Many Kenyans on social media expressed their reaction on the move with some questioning the end motive of the plan while others expressing their outright reservations

How is this funny, acceptable or relevant? Instead of addressing real issues affecting Kenyans you are here addressing unnecessary issues and by all means, is being inhumane. How is this leadership?
