Malindi MP Aisha Jumwa has accused Mombasa governor Hassan Joho of being behind the push to expel her from ODM.
“ODM should stop joking. I was in ODM by choice; I was arrested because of [ODM leader] Raila [Odinga]. In Coast, the deputy party leader Ali Hassan Joho has been silent since the intimidation began,” she said.
Jumwa spoke on Wednesday during a meeting to share her development achievements with residents.
ODM’s disciplinary committee in December 2018 recommended the expulsion of Jumwa and Msambweni MP Suleiman Dori for supporting Deputy President William Ruto’s 2022 bid.
However, Raila assured them of a fair hearing.
Jumwa expressed disappointment at Joho’s silence as the disciplinary committee “intimidates” her.
She said she vigorously campaigned for ODM in 2017.
A row is now simmering between Kilifi and Mombasa leaders.
