  • Ms Kinzani is facing four criminal charges for publishing false information under Section 23 of the Computer Misuse and Cybercrime Act.
  • A charge sheet presented before Mombasa Court indicates that the suspect knowingly published information titled “To the Government of Kenya and the Gen-Z,” which falsely claimed that Mr Abubakar is involved in drug trafficking.

A social media user has found herself in trouble for allegedly claiming in a WhatsApp group that Mining and Blue Economy Cabinet Secretary, Hassan Joho, and his brother, Abubakar Ali Joho (Abu), defrauded Mombasa County of over Sh40 billion.

According to court records, Ms Matilda Maodo Kinzani also attempted to link Mr Abubakar to drug trafficking and theft of containers at the Port of Mombasa.
