Munuve made headlines in late 2023 when he initiated a campaign to collect signatures for the impeachment of Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja.
This move was driven by allegations of delayed bursary disbursements, incompetence in county leadership, and widespread corruption at City Hall.
Munuve, along with other Nairobi MCAs, expressed frustration over the governor’s handling of county affairs, citing issues such as revenue mismanagement and the influence of cartels within the county administration.
The impeachment efforts gained traction as more MCAs voiced concerns about the county’s financial practices and governance.
Some legislators accused Sakaja of lacking control over revenue collection systems and failing to address operational challenges in county facilities.
