Mombasa governor, Hassan Joho has said that he will not accept to be treated like a lesser person during President Uhuru Kenyatta’s visit to the Coast.
The governor was speaking on Friday at Vikwatani, Kisauni constituency when he stated that he will not be treated like a subordinate leader just because the president will be visiting.
President Uhuru had been to the region twice and both occasions, Joho was not invited something that sparked friction between the two.
He is now expected to visit the region on Saturday to officially open the new retail centre at Kongowea market.
“I heard they announced they are coming back here. We are watching and waiting for them. This time, we will tell them to their face, no fearing anyone,” Joho said.
Joho accused President Uhuru of not having done anything for the public ever since he took up the presidency.
“You can’t be in government do nothing for us then disappear only to resurface close to the general election and say you want to meet Coast leaders.”
The governor stated that the Coastal people are now wiser.
“If you think you will come here and call people to State House and expect them to come running, my friend, you have lost focus,” Joho said.
