Joho confidence in succeeding President Kenyatta

As the 2022 succession politics continue more and more politicians are coming out declaring their interest in the top seat.

However Mombasa Governor Hassan Joho has been at it for sometime now and has shown confidence in succeeding President Uhuru Kenyatta come 2022, he has built a huge political base across Kenya to mount a presidential campaign.

   

 

According to the governor, “My supporters know me. When I decide to go for something I mean it. I cannot lose hope,” said the governor.

He said his stand on public issues affecting Kenya and the region was well documented, and he intended to use it as a platform to seek the presidency.

In addition he said, “I have assessed myself and come to conclude I can be the president of this country. We (at the Coast) have been complaining of being marginalised for far too long. That narrative will disappear when we get power,” he said.

Joho said he was shocked to hear some Coast leaders claim the region cannot produce a president, yet it had produced politicians who had played key roles in Kenya’s history, including the struggle for independence.

Joho said he would exploit his new-found friendship with President Uhuru Kenyatta to foster national cohesion and ensure Coast benefits from economic and social development.
