What you need to know:

  • Despite her release on a Sh3 million bond on Friday, Ms Jumwa remained the State’s guest over the weekend because she failed to raise the bail on time.
  • Ms Jumwa has attributed her woes to her dalliance with Deputy President William Ruto, whom she has vowed to stand with no matter the situation.

A day before Malindi MP Aisha Jumwa was arraigned at the Mombasa court to face a murder charge, the embattled legislator was busy telling off her detractors.

Ms Jumwa’s bravado was not to last long as she was soon to swallow a bitter pill after being forced to spend seven days in filthy cold cells at Port Police Station in Mombasa.
