Aisha Jumwa was speaking about the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) report in Mombasa, when the youths came in and begun shouting forcing the media to cut short the interview.

It is not yet clear as to why the youths disrupted the press conference.

Just before the disruption, Jumwa was addressing the claims of an alleged showdown at Mombasa during the planned BBI rally that will take place this weekend.

According to Jumwa, the allegations of a showdown are being propagated by the media.

She claimed that everyone was free to attend the BBI rally.

"Like I said this is an free event and everyone can attend. Therefore most of these allegations are just being hyped by journalists. Because most of the stories I see about the alleged showdown are just the creation of the media.

(Kama nilivyosema hafla hizi zinafanywa huru, kwa kila mmoja akaweze ku attend. Kwa hivyo kuna michakato ambayo labda wana hype tu wanahabari. Maanake mimi naona most of this stories ambazo zinakua hyped ni creation ya media ya kwamba kutakuwa na showdown)," Jumwa said.

The interview with the Malindi MP was cut short by rowdy youths.
