ODM MP Bashed for Carrying Envelope 'from' State House

Likoni Member of Paliament (MP) Mwalimu Masudi Mwahima was criticised by Kenyans on social media, after a picture of him carrying a brown envelop outside Mombasa State House emerged.

The Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) lawmaker was dubbed a rebel with some saying that he had been 'bought' by Jubilee.

According to ODM Alert Media, Masoud was given a handosme amount to ferry youth to a meeting President Uhuru Kenyatta would be holding in Likoni.

The legislator was however, applauded by others stating that it was about time he realised that the Opposition would take him nowhere.

This comes at a time when Jubilee is reported to woo ODM leaders from the region. Last week, five CORD MPs from the Coast vowed to jump ship and join the Jubilee Party as their new political vehicle.

The legislators include Lunga Lunga MP Suleiman MwashetaniPeter Shehe of GanzeSalim Mustafa of Kilifi SouthJames Kamoti of Rabai constituency and Kilifi North lawmaker Gideon Mung'aro.

Here are some of the reactions:

Old men like Hon Mwahima have no iota of shame. It's the reason much needed land reform and economic progress escape people at coast!

Hon Mwahima legislative record is pathetic. His CDF management among the worst. Mediocrity and greed that has stifled coast for 50 years

The Likoni MP Masoud Mwahima has only spoken 16 times in parliament. This are the jokers Uhuru buys cheaply! pic.twitter.com/NqNOKKPB8F
