Mrs Ibrahim also divulged that her husband's arrest was linked to the remarks he made concerning President Kenyatta.
Coast Police boss Larry Kieng confirmed the MCA's arrest, announcing: "We are probing him regarding a very serious offense."
Mr Kieng stated that the NASA politician is being questioned on a grave offense with a bearing on national security.
Mr Omondi has been in the spotlight since a video was circulated on social media showing him dismissing President Kenyatta as a caretaker President.
"Uhuru should be cautious.He is not even the President of Kenya, he is a caretaker president and is supposed to respect the constitution just like any other citizen," he stated.
Meanwhile, a section of Mombasa MCAs has warned the electoral commission against conducting the repeat poll in the county.
