Changamwe Member of Parliament Omar Mwinyi says he is not afraid to lose the ODM ticket for supporting business man Suleiman Shahbal to succeed governor Hassan Joho in the August 9 elections.

Mwinyi has become the latest strong critic of Mvita Member of parliament Abdulswamand Nassir, after officially endorsing business man Suleiman Shahbal for the top seat.

"So far have  I done alot of development for my people of Changamwe, so even if you deny me an ODM ticket, I have nothing to lose,"Mwinyi said, stating that he will not be intimidated for supporting Shahbal.

Mwinyi has poured cold water on Nassir’s ambition saying the two time Mvita Mp does not have what it takes to be the next Mombasa governor,o ver what he termed as leadership incompetence.

Mwinyi who seemed to be unhappy with how Mombasa has been led for the past years, asked residents not to make a mistake to elect a leader who has no interest of serving them

 The two times Changamwe legislator, who appears to have launched a scathing attack on Nassir, says Mombasa deserves a visionary leader with leadership skills, to manage billions of county allocation funds.

"I know Shahbal is a man of integrity ,he doesn't want power because of Money,but this young men who want to put on expensive shoes ,watches, I doubt if they mean good for this county," said Mwinyi.

Mwinyi said Nassir has a character of a celebrity who is out to impress through 'very expensive' shoes and attire, at the expense of poor status of the electorates.

 "I will go round this time ,to drum up support for Shahbal's candidature because I know he means good for this country," he added.

He was speaking at a meeting convened by Shahbal, where they rallied aspirants seeking political seats in Mombasa to drum up support for Shahbal's candidature.

Nassir and Mombasa businessman Suleiman Shahbal are among the top contenders seeking to succeed Governor Hassan Joho in 2022.

The duo is contesting through ODM party, but ODM is yet to unveil its preferred candidate. This is after the party announced that there will no be sacred cows in party nominations for Mombasa.
