Inside the Horrifying Child Trafficking Ring That Used Fake Rescue Centres to Exploit Minors: How Intelligence-Led Detectives Dismantled the Operation, Rescued 22 Vulnerable Girls, and Dragged the Suspected Mastermind to Face Justice at Shanzu Law Courts. In a chilling operation that has sent shockwaves through Kenya's coastal region and ignited national outrage over the vulnerability of children to predatory exploitation, detectives from the Anti-Human Trafficking and Child Protection Unit (AHTCPU) have dismantled an alleged child trafficking and sexual abuse ring operating under the sinister guise of charitable rescue operations.

2027 Political Storm: Coastal ODM Leaders Push for Hassan Joho as Ruto’s Deputy in Explosive Power Play


ODM’s Coastal Wing Sparks Debate as Joho’s DP Bid Gains Momentum Ahead of 2027 Elections
Political temperatures are rising rapidly along Kenya’s coast after a powerful section of ODM leaders publicly declared support for Hassan Joho to become Deputy President in 2027 under a possible power-sharing deal with William Ruto.

The bold declaration, led by Abdulswamad Nassir, alongside Gideon Mung’aro, Fikirini Jacobs, and Stewart Madzayo, has ignited a fresh political storm, with the leaders exuding confidence that ODM is positioning itself for dominance in the next general elections.

“Joho Will Be DP in 2027” — Leaders Make Bold Declaration
Speaking during a charged political engagement, Nassir revealed that while the Deputy President position is not currently under contest, ODM is strategically eyeing it in 2027 under the broad-based government arrangement.

In a statement that has already gone viral, Nassir confidently declared that current DP Kithure Kindiki should not feel threatened—for now.
“That position is his at the moment, but come 2027, Joho will take it,” Nassir stated.

The remarks have sparked intense reactions online, with many interpreting them as early signs of a major political realignment ahead of the next election cycle.

ODM Draws Battle Lines as Coast Leaders Warn Rivals
Kilifi Governor Mung’aro added fuel to the fire by reaffirming ODM’s support for Ruto’s second-term bid, while issuing a stern warning to the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) against attempting to penetrate ODM strongholds at the Coast.
According to him, the party is fully prepared to field candidates across all elective seats, signaling a no-nonsense approach to defending its turf.

Joho Eyes DP Seat as Stepping Stone to Presidency
In a move that has further intensified the political buzz, Joho himself openly embraced the DP ambitions, revealing that the position would serve as a launchpad for a possible 2032 presidential bid.
He emphasized his growing national influence, warning political rivals attempting to force their way into ODM zones that they should brace for a tough battle.

“In 2027, we will field candidates in all positions… those trying to impose themselves on our ground will face resistance,” Joho asserted.

Kenya Braces for Early 2027 Political Showdown
With declarations already being made and alliances taking shape, the race to 2027 appears to have unofficially begun. The Coast’s united push for Joho is now shaping up to be one of the most talked-about political developments, potentially redefining Kenya’s power dynamics in the coming years.
