Life has never been the same for the former Nairobi County boss as he tried to vie for the Mombasa Gubernatorial seat under the Wiper Party during the August 2022 general elections but he didn't succeed.

Sonko was handed the Wiper ticket despite being unfit to run for office after his impeachment two years ago.
