Former Mombasa Governor Ali Hassan Joho has sparked mixed reactions after sharing a short video showing a fleet of high-end vehicles in his convoy.
The Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) Deputy Party Leader stepped out in the expensive fleet during the Eid Fitr prayers and celebrations.
Joho was driven in a white Mercedes Benz G Wagon to join other Muslim leaders from Mombasa and other worshippers. The machine is powered by a handcrafted AMG 4.0 litre V8 bi-turbo engine.
The white G Wagon oozes power and class with the engine capable of generating 577 horsepower making it capable of handling all terrains.
