[Photo: Ali Hassan Joho]Everything that the Jubilee government touches, turns out to be wrong.This is according to Mombasa governor Ali Hassan Joho, after a section of the Sh1.2 billion Sigiri bridge in Budalangi constituency, Busia County, collapsed.The bridge collapsed after it was inspected by President Uhuru Kenyatta and his Deputy William Ruto less than two weeks ago.Accompanied by area MP Ababu Namwamba, the two Jubilee leaders were in the region June 15 to inspect the construction of the bridge.Joho who is a strong critic of the Jubilee government, said Uhuru should ask himself why most of the projects he launched, are experiencing hitches."Everything that they touch go wrong. The president is launching projects which are not lasting. He launched Mtongwe Ferry, it collapsed. He has launched a bridge in Budalangi, it has collapsed. They should ask themselves why everything they touch, go wrong," said the ODM governor.Joho was speaking as he marked Baraza at the Treasury Square, an event that keeps a long standing tradition alive, of Muslims, as they marked Idd-Ul-Fitr.He thanked the residents of Mombasa, government officials, religious and political leadership for turning up in large numbers to commemorate the auspicious day. "My heartfelt gratitude also goes to the Eid Baraza Organising Committee who have worked tirelessly towards the success of the event."
