A section of North Rift youths have now demanded Mombasa Governor Hassan Joho to apologize over the remarks he allegedly made about Deputy President William Ruto.
The ODM Deputy Party leader reportedly called Ruto a land grabber moments after the DP had labeled him an academic dwarf.
And on Friday, the youths led by Joel Kimaiyo accused the Mombasa Governor of demeaning the DP without substantial evidence.
“We respect the Governor but it’s wrong for him to demean the DP by calling him a land grabber without material evidence,” he told The Star.
“We want him to apologize or we take a legal action against him. We can’t allow him to drag the name of the DP carelessly on matters that he cannot substantiate,” added Kimaiyo.
The two leaders have been engaging in public spat with analyst linking then to 2022 presidential race where they are tipped to run against each other.
