“With a dagger, the Sultan is back!” lawyer Ahmednasir Abdullahi posted on his X-space shortly after former Mombasa governor Hassan Ali Joho was nominated to join the Cabinet.

Joho is among four ODM top brass that President William Ruto has tapped to steady his shaky government following sustained protests by Gen Zs in the country.

Others are his ODM co-deputy Party Leader Wycliffe Oparanya, ODM chairman John Mbadi, and Ugunja MP Opiyo Wandayi, the Minority Leader in the National Assembly.

Joho has accepted the nomination for the Cabinet Secretary Mining and Blue Economy, and he will now have to team up with fierce critics of his 10-year reign as the governor of Mombasa.
