Aisha Jumwa Arrested

Malindi MP Aisha Jumwa was arrested along with four others after one person was shot dead on Tuesday when they allegedly stormed the home of an ODM candidate on Tuesday. Ms. Jumwa was arrested on Wednesday (16/10/2019) around 3 a.m. when police raided her home, camping at her gate from 10 p.m. on Tuesday after refusing to grant them access.

Ganda Ward ODM candidate Ruben Katana’s uncle was shot dead in the confusion following Thursday’s by-election after the Malindi MP and her team stormed his home where he met poll agents. Speaking to Nation before her arrest, Ms. Jumwa said that after Malindi Sub-County Police Commander Philip Wambugu delayed acting on calls to disperse the gathering, Ms. Jumwa went home to protest against what she said was an unlawful meeting.

“According to the rule, campaigns ended on Monday at 6 pm and once I received reports that the ODM candidate held an illegal meeting, I decided to go and protest why the police did not do their job,” the combative MP said.

Aisha Jumwa Released

Malindi MP Aisha Jumwa freed on Sh500,000 cash bail as a probe on the killing of an ODM supporter in the Ganda area continues, court rules. Aisha Jumwa and her bodyguard Geofrey Okuto has been released on a cash bail of Ksh 500, 000 or Ksh 1 million bonds by the Mombasa Law court after staying in a police cell for two days. The judge ruled police have no evidence to detain the accused persons.

Ms. Jumwa was arrested on Wednesday (16/10/2019) around 3 a.m. when police raided her home, camping at her gate from 10 p.m. on Tuesday after refusing to grant them access.

Aisha Jumwa Lost

The Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) has retained the Ganda MCA seat in the mini poll with a landslide victory that saw one person shot down early this week. The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) declared ODM’s Reuben Katana victorious at around midnight on Thursday (17/10/2019) with 4,177 votes beating Malindi MP Aisha Jumwa’s favorite candidate Abdulrahman Omar (independent), who claimed 2,331 votes.

Katana beat Omar with a margin of 1,846 votes. Jubilee’s Joseph Kiponda came third with 599 votes followed by David Mitsanze with 362 votes. However, IEBC said only 7,506 out of 16,623 voters (45.15 percent) turned up for the exercise. The MCA-elect urged residents to stop political divisions based on parties, tribe, or religion so as to build the nation.

Jumwa, her supporters, and the other candidates who lost never turned up for the results announcement at the tallying center. Malindi’s Ganda ward seat was declared vacant by a Mombasa High Court after Katana moved to court challenging the results of the 2017 poll.

Aisha Jumwa Blow After Blow

Embattled Malindi MP Aisha Jumwa has suffered a blow after Kilifi ODM leaders vowed to lead locals in gathering signatures to recall the legislator for wrestling her constituents, causing chaos and death.

The move comes barely five months after the Political Parties Disputes Tribunal (PPDT) quashed the ODM party’s disciplinary proceedings which led to her ejection from the party. The party’s delegates voted in March for Ms. Jumwa’s expulsion over her support for Deputy President William Ruto and his bid for the presidency come 2022.

Kilifi North MP Owen Baya, Michael Kingi (Magarini), Ken Chonga (Kilifi South) and Kilifi Woman Rep Gertrude Mbeyu, who were backed by about 30 Kilifi ODM members of the county assembly, said Ms. Jumwa had offended the party and her constituent and locals have lost hope in her leadership.

Aisha Jumwa Questioned Over CDF

The Directorate of Criminal Investigations questioned Malindi MP Aisha Jumwa on 7/11/2019 (Thursday) about the embezzlement of more than Sh57 million CDF money. Her lawyers, Danstan Omari and Cliff Ombeta, said she had been called to the DCI to explain the matter. Ombeta said Jumwa needed time to answer the questions because “off the cuff” was posed and confirmation needed to be done.

Aisha Jumwa Blames Joho, Kingi For Her Woes

Embattled Malindi MP Aisha Jumwa pulled Mombasa Governor Hassan Joho and his Kilifi counterpart Amason Kingi into their woes as the Criminal Investigation Directorate (DCI) winds up inquiries into the fatal shooting of Ganda Ward representative Reuben Katana’s uncle.

Ms. Jumwa and her aide Geoffrey Okuto, arrested after Jola Ngumbao’s death after storming Mr. Katana’s home on the eve of the by-election, were released on each bail of Sh500,000. But even as the seven lawmakers from ODM and about 30 MCAs from Kilifi County seek signatures from residents of Malindi to have Ms. Jumwa recalled, she accused the two governors and some MPs of instigating her detention.

Ms. Jumwa, who expressed interest in Kilifi’s gubernatorial seat, told Governors Joho and Kingi that they were engaged in ODM politics rather than development, and of not having area residents’ interests at heart.

Aisha Jumwa And Francis Atwoli

During the Labor Day celebration at Uhuru Park on May 1, after Mishi Mboko had spoken and scolded Aisha Jumwa for disrespecting Atwoli, Central Organization for Trade Union (COTU) Secretary General Francis Atwoli Said: “Achana na huyo mama, hata sio type yangu, huyo hata si taste yangu.

Anacheza sana na jina yangu. Mpime na ruler, hata hana kiuno(Ignore that lady she is not my taste. She is joking with my personality. Measure her waist with a ruler and you will know she has nothing).

The Malindi Member of Parliament and a diehard of Deputy President William Ruto has clapped back to the outspoken unionist during a funeral service for Kilifi Woman Representative Gertrude Mbeyu’s father, Justus Chitole on Saturday, sarcastically giving a reason why she is not fit of Atwoli calibre.

“Juzi nilisikia mnabweka bweka ooh Aisha Jumwa si type yangu… Atwoli mimi type yako naijua…wewe umezoea kupeleka machine ya probox ,V8 utaiweza ( I recently heard people shouting that aisha jumwa is not my taste…Atwoli I know your type, you are used to driving a probox will you manage a V8?),” she said.

Atwoli has on several occasions expressed his disapproval of Deputy President William Ruto candidature for presidency come 2022 saying, on record, that his name will not be on the ballot. His remarks were not welcome by all as they attracted czar criticism from allies of Deputy President, including Aisha Jumwa, who dismissed his claims as unfounded.

Aisha Jumwa Edwin Sifuna

There was drama at the funeral of Mombasa Deputy Governor William Kingi’s father on 4th May 2019 after Malindi MP Aisha Jumwa cut short ODM Secretary-General Edwin Sifuna’s speech.

Jumwa accused Sifuna of talking politics during the funeral and asked him to respect the Mijikenda. Sifuna stated that he had been sent to represent NASA leader Raila Odinga at the sendoff ceremony but things quickly went south when he started explaining why Jumwa was expelled from ODM.
