Government suspends NASA leaders' passports

7th February, 2018

Mombasa Governor Hassan Joho, Siaya Senator James Orengo and former Machakos Senator Johnson Muthama are among NASA politicians whose passports have been suspended by the state. The coalition’s chief strategist, David Ndii, and businessman Jimi Wanjigi have also not been spared the purge as the government intensifies a crackdown on the opposition figures following a move to “swear in” its presidential candidate in the last elections Raila Odinga as “the people’s president” in a symbolic move of defiance.in a letter addressed to the leaders, said to be 15 in total, the director of immigration Gordon Kihalang’wa said the revocation was done in line with citizen and immigration act 2011 which gives grounds for the suspensions.  Kihalang’wa consequently directed the opposition leaders to surrender their passports to the immigration offices at Nyayo House within 21 days, failing which, he says, the documents will be declared null and void.
