Mombasa Governor Hassan Joho has yet against challenged the government to bring to a halt debate surrounding withdrawal of his security details by deploying them elsewhere.
Joho, who has been at loggerheads with President Uhuru Kenyatta over development projects in the coastal rejection, Joho insisted that only God protects His people.
His remarks comes moments after a group of legislators allied to opposition ODM to reinstate Joho and his Kilifi counterpart Amason Kingi’s security details.
“I want to urge the government to do me a favour by retaining its security personnel. I do not need them because after all it is God who gives and takes life,” said Joho.
He added: “You cannot intimidate us all the times just because we do not agree with you. I am sick and tired with these old political theatrics.”
This is not the first time Joho is losing guards given that he also had his guards withdrawn last year under unknown circumstances.
