Politician or Drug lord: Gorvenor Sang’s new claims on Joho

It’s barely weeks since Mombasa Governor Ali Hassan Joho filled a lawsuit against his Nandi counterpart and three others for defaming and referring to him as a part of a Kenyan drug syndicate with the assumption it was over.

But then Stephen Sang is not done yet with 001 governor. Sang now wants the State to reveal the owner of the ship blown up in Mombasa by President Uhuru Kenyatta in 2014 that had 370.8 kgs of heroin valued at Sh1.3 billion..

Through his lawyer Danstan Omari, Sang has written to all state agencies requesting for information relating to the details of ownership of the defunct ship known as Amin Darya/MV Alnoor that was blown up in Mombasa.

Sang has questioned why the owners of the ship have not been unmasked approximately five years down the line since the ship was blown up whom in his defence belonged to Joho.

Sang and the three legislators are said to have claimed that Joho’s name was in a list tabled in Parliament by the late George Saitoti in 2010. The list of six names was in a US embassy dossier, which ex-US ambassador Michael Ranneberger had given to the then Kenya Anti-Corruption Commission.

The governor wants the information in order to help him vindicate himself in the lawsuit filed by Joho against him.

Among the agencies that the governor has written to include Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission, Office of the President, Defense CS Rachel Omamo, DCI George Kinoti, IG Joseph Boinett and Interior CS Fred Matiang’i.

Joho has retaliated by demanding the International Police Organisation (Interpol) to clarify the authenticity of the controversial letter dated November 2018 that claimed he was on Interpol’s organized crimes and drug trafficking most-wanted list.
