When he assumed office in 2013, Joho was married to a beautiful Muslim lady.

Unlike other county First Ladies, Madina Giovanni Fazzini Joho likes to keep a low profile.

Born of an Italian father and Somali mother, Madina Joho is also an Italian citizen who speaks over seven languages.

The mother of four who turned 28 last year, prefers to keep a small circle of friends and family. 

Joho and Madina's four children are a boy Shaheed and three daughters, Rahma, Umm Kulthum and Amina. 

The Mombasa County First Lady first appeared in public when her husband was being sworn-in after their victory during the March 4, 2013 general elections.

Former Mombasa Deputy Governor Hazel Katana and former Senator Omar Hassan's wife have been close friends to Madina.

Reports said Madina is into philanthropy especially and helps out orphans, and also runs some vast businesses ranging from shipping, environmental management and retail.

It is not clear whether the two are still together as Joho is oftenly seen unaccompanied by his spouse since his August 8, 2017 re-election.
