Jomvu MP Badi Twalib has said that Mombasa governor Hassan Joho is not a drug baron.
“He entered the lion’s den ‘US’ and came back unscathed,” said Twalib.
Mvita MP Abdulswamad Nassir said the 'drug propaganda' has been raised too many times.
"Joho will be the first president from Coast come 2022. I hope the drug propaganda won't be peddled (then)," he said.
In the US, Joho attended series of meetings of the Strong Cities Network in Washington DC and met Kareem Shora - section chief, office of the secretary, US Department of Homeland Security.
He also met Russell T Porter - USAid senior coordinator for the secretariat for countering violent extremism.
Joho traveled to the US earlier this month and jetted back into the Country on Sunday to a King’s reception by ODM officials and supporters in the Coast.
