Communication expert Barrack Mulaka says the issue surrounding ODM governor Hassan Joho academic papers is a witch-hunt to make him come down.

Kenya National Examination Council (KNEC) alleged that Joho’s KCSE result slip was obtained from forged documents and that he never sat for his KCSE exams at Serani Secondary School in 1992.

Barrack noted the timing in which the matter was being brought up was questionable and that there might be some forces behind the ODM deputy party leader's falldown.

“It is a clear with hunt against Governor Joho. This is not to saying that what is being leveled against him may not have happened but it is not possible that I will just pull out one individual and isolate that individual, and an individual who has been told by the president that we are going to streamline you,” said Muluka.

It is very awkward going hand in glove with his freezing of his bank accounts. Let this matter be done for everybody,” he added during a television interview, Monday.
