A clip from the event has been circulating widely, capturing a moment when Sonko appeared to touch Senator Karen Nyamu as they danced together.
Video footage, which has gone viral, shows Nyamu enthusiastically dancing while seated on a chair and Sonko dancing closely behind her.
His actions have drawn significant scrutiny, prompting many online users to raise concerns about the encounter.
In light of the backlash, Sonko took to Twitter to address the situation, sharing the controversial clip and questioning why his actions were being criticized.
He provocatively stated, “Let me ask, because what is the point of eating with the eyes?” suggesting that the uproar may be overblown and asking whether there was truly anything wrong with what he did.
The Kamba Festival was a vibrant celebration that attracted a large crowd, including attendees eager to see the performances and join in the festivities.
Both Sonko and Nyamu were seen interacting amicably before taking the stage, creating an entertaining atmosphere filled with music and laughter.
Nyamu, dressed in casual attire—a bright orange t-shirt and blue jeans—was notably enthusiastic as she danced from her high perch on the chair, much to the delight of the audience.
The excitement of the event was amplified by appearances from various entertainers, including well-known local artist Oga Obinna, who captured and shared snippets of the action on social media.
Prior to the festival, Nyamu had engaged with her followers online, seeking suggestions for weekend plans.
In a post showcasing his luxury Land Cruiser, he invited the online community to offer ideas, expressing his uncertainty about how to enjoy his day.
Despite the seemingly light-hearted context of their interactions at the festival, Sonko’s comments and the surrounding controversy underscore the ongoing challenges faced by public figures in navigating personal conduct and media scrutiny.
The incident serves as a reminder of the complex dynamics at play in the intersection of politics and public perception.
