KDRTV-Former Mombasa County senator Hassan Omar and Nyali constituency member of parliament Mohamed Ali on Saturday visited Deputy President William Ruto at his Karen office where the trio had a close door meeting. 

The details of the secret meeting remain scanty but there is no doubt that the politicians had the opportunity to discuss the country’s political state amid the ongoing Building Bridges Initiative (BBI)  politics and the upcoming 2022 presidential race which has continued to take shape.

Through a brief and highly coded message, Mohamed Ali took to Twitter to notify his supporters and Kenyans at large about the meeting but failed to disclose the main agenda.

“This will remain the land of the free so long as it is the home of the brave,”Ali tweeted.

Since then, he has been accompanying DP Ruto in all his trips to the coastal region.He has been termed as Ruto’s pointman in the region where the ODM party enjoys massive support.Ruto has been using Mohamed Ali to penetrate into Raila’s turf as he try to win the hearts of more Coastal residents before the 2022 polls.
