Mombasa Governor Hassan Joho has affirmed his support for opposition leader Raila Odinga. Speaking during an opposition rally held at Mama Ngina grounds in Mombasa on Sunday, the county boss said he is a loyal servant of National Super Alliance (NASA) flag bearer Raila, adding that he is not ready to work with any other party.”I am Raila’s general. I am only waiting for orders. When he tells me to go left, I will obey the orders. We are waiting for Raila to give us direction," said Joho, as quoted by Baraka FM.The ODM deputy party leader also condemned opposition leaders who recently decamped to President Uhuru Kenyatta's Jubilee Party.
Joho mocked the politicians saying they are poll losers who were rejected during the August 8 polls.
The outspoken Governor further criticised Jubilee MPs for amending the electoral laws with only a few days left to the repeat presidential polls slated for October 26.
He asked the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) to uphold the irreducible minimum electoral reforms that NASA is seeking in order for Raila to take part in the polls.
The rally was attended by several opposition leaders including NASA principals Raila Odinga, Moses Wetangula, Musalia Mudavadi, Kilifi GovernorAmason Kingi among others.
