A bodyguard attached to the Mombasa county governor Hassan Joho, has reportedly tested positive for Covid-19. The bodyguard, who is among the four that guard the governor, tested positive while in Nairobi and they have all been quarantined at Mombasa Beach Hotel. Sources confirmed that the bodyguard had escorted the governor to Nairobi for the Senate hearings and tested positive after the sessions, few days before Joho jetted out of the country. Mombasa county is second with the highest numbers of infection rates after Nairobi. Sources said the issue is too sensitive for Koitaba's docket since it borders on the security of the governor.
