Governor of Nairobi elected to C40 City Steering Committee
Press releases
June 14, 2023
His Excellency The Hon. Sakaja Arthur Johnson, Governor of the District of Nairobi, Kenya, has been elected Vice Chairman of the C40 Steering Committee, the governing body that provides strategic direction to a global network of nearly 100 cities committed to tackling the global climate crisis.
Johnson, who was elected governor in August 2022, is working to transform Nairobi into a Green City in the sun, a nickname derived from the city’s foliage and warm climate. The city is prone to floods, extreme heat and drought. Without adaptation and mitigation efforts, these threats will become more volatile, and urban residents will face unprecedented livelihood challenges.
Johnson committed to implement the Nairobi Climate Action Plan with C40 support and focus on developing a roadmap for the city to achieve zero emissions, create green jobs and increase local resilience.
Previously, Johnson was a Senator from Nairobi. During his time in Parliament, he was Chairman of the Standing Committee on Labor and Social Protection and Vice Chairman of the Standing Committee on National Security, Defense and Foreign Relations. He was also chairman of the Kenya Young Parliamentarians Association.
Johnson was nominated by Apolitica for the 100 Best Future Leaders: The World’s Most Powerful Young People in Government (2018) and was awarded the 2016 Changemaker of the Year at the African Achievers Award in recognition of his leadership and empowerment and youth opportunities in Kenya. Johnson was elected to represent 13 C40 cities in Africa.
In his new role on the C40 Steering Committee, Johnson will be a leading voice calling on African cities to work together to accelerate action on climate change. As C40 Vice Chair, Johnson will support the creation of a community of practice that will share knowledge and experience, and provide the funding needed to build climate resilience and address the loss and damage associated with global warming.
C40EU member cities represent 700 million citizens and a quarter of the global economy. Through collaboration and innovation, C40 City Mayors are determined to meet the highest goals of the Paris Agreement and keep global temperature rise below 1.
