Mombasa governor Nassir records a statement related to the rape case of blogger Bruce Johns.
This comes a few days after he held a press conference to distance himself from the case.
Mombasa county Governor Abdulswamad Nassir has presented himself before the Directorate of Criminal Investigations in Mombasa office to record a statement concerning the gang rape of Mombasa-based blogger Bruce John.
Talking to the press after recording his statement, the governor affirmed that he was ready to present his mother to the detectives too if she was ever summoned.
He also insisted that he had not been summoned by the DCI but had made a unilateral decision to present himself before the DCI as an example.
“I brought myself here on my own will because there is no one above the law. That cannot be. I have brought myself here as an example.”
The governor did not fail to advocate for the justice of Bruce John and urged the detectives to hurry up and solve the case.
His statement comes after Bruce had recorded a TikTok Video criticizing the Governor both in his personal life and his leadership style.
Bruce was tortured and gang-raped with the entire ordeal captured on camera with a threat to release the footage if he was ever to speak on it.
The Governor had previously held a press conference distancing himself from the case for the first time and even alluded to receiving 800 messages from Bruce which he never replied to and him breaking into his mother’s home.
