Mombasa Governor Hassan Joho on Saturday made a promise to the National Super Alliance (NASA) coalition partners after the surprise talks that happened between President Uhuru Kenyatta and their leader Raila Odinga.
Posting on his social media, Joho assured the parties that "he would be the custodian of their interests and concerns."
Additionally, Joho called on the coalition partners to forget the wars and embrace peace that was brought by the Raila-Uhuru meeting that happened on Friday.

"To our coalition partners, there’s a time for peace and a time for war. This is the time for peace. Not all of us may have fought in the times of war, but all of us MUST fight for peace. The time for war has come and gone," Joho exclaimed.
In a series of tweets, the ODM Deputy Party leader stated that he was proud to be in a party that had always been on the right side of history.
"To our party supporters, I wish to reassure you, our leadership has always been on the right side of history. As ODM, our faith in our leadership is resolute because it stands tried and tested," he expressed.
Joho was quick to assert his support for Mr Odinga in his quest to heal the country.
"I wish to express my support for my party leader the Rt. Hon. @RailaOdinga in his efforts towards unity, peace & justice in Kenya. I pray that God gives him strength & wisdom to deliver a brighter future for all of us in this country," he noted.
This statement comes after ANC leader Musalia Mudavadi maintained that the NASA agenda was to push for national dialogue and not a dialogue between the two people.
Mudavadi, further, highlighted that he hoped the meeting was not a Public Relations (PR) stunt due to the visit by the US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.
