Mombasa Governor Hassan Joho (
pictured) was yesterday holed up in a meeting with some Coast MPs, days after Kilifi’s Amason Kingi met the leaders of fringe political parties in the region.
In yet another sign that the two governors have ratcheted up their battle for the control of the region, reports indicate that Joho held an exclusive meeting with some leaders from Kilifi.
When contracted for comment, Joho’s orderlies and close political allies feigned ignorance of the meeting in Nyali that began some minutes past 11am and ended at about 4.15pm. Joho was later in the evening seen playing golf at Nyali Golf and Country Club.
