Is there a story unfolding in your community? Let Hivisasa know

A number of Kenyans on social media have attacked Mombasa governor, Ali Hassan Joho, after he allegedly rigged ODM nomination votes, in support of his brother.

This is after Mohammed Ali (Moha Jicho Pevu), accused Joho's family of rigging him out of the Nyali parliamentary ODM nomination ticket race, Saturday April 22.

Moha and Joho's brother, Abdalla Said, were facing each other, for the ODM party nomination ticket.

According to Moha, Nyali ODM nominations were already skewed to favour Joho's brother Said, after he realised that his name was missing from both the ODM register and that of the IEBC.

A section of Kenyans reacted to it harshly through facebook, accusing Joho of failing to stand with Moha, despite receiveing overwhelming support, when the government was 'frustrating'.

Below are various reactions by Kenyans on facebook:

Брайан Онгири wewe joho Sasa unajishusha,ikiwa utendi haki ata wewe hutatendewa haki ata kidogo, chamsingi ningependa kuwakumbusha kua (muogopeni MUNGU) kwani chochote unacho kifanya hata kwa Siri jua MUNGU anaona,pia sio lazima kua family yote muwe viongozi, wengine waende wakauze karanga
