Nyali ODM nominations on parliamentary seat is taking a crucial and vigorous engagement either positively or negatively. other contesters are silent on it except Mohamed Ali Jicho pevu and Said Sirlem Saido. The controversy started when Jicho pevu supporters blew their own trumpet by exposing how they will get direct ODM nomination from Orange house through director of Elections at Orange house. Mohamed Hatimy who is the chair of ODM, believes that there is no single candidate who is special than the other. He is categorical clear that there is no single article in the constitution of the party that favours any individuals to get direct ticket without battling in free and fair nomination procedures.
It is in the public domain that Jicho Pevu aspirations has never been on the parameter of Joho's credentials. it is know that Jicho pevu was told by Raila to work closely with In case he wants to get ODM ticket, despite him being close to Raila. Jicho pevu was forced to work with Joho as a victim of circumstances but not in the gear of mutual relationship. This has resulted to silent shift of trust between Joho and Jicho pevu. it has brought a lot of disintegration among Joho's family on whether to support Jicho pevu or not. The fight has resulted to pure incitements among the electorates of who not to receive direct ODM nominations. recently some Luos from Nyali constituency paid a courtesy visits to Johoo in the protest against direct nominations.
Saidoo is a candidate who believes he has been in Mombasa ODM politics for long. He is among the top organs who have directly engaged in ODM affairs Mombasa county. He was shocked to know that he will be locked out of ODM politics simply because there is a new entry of a stranger in Nyali politics who want to be given direct nomination of ODM ticket in Nyali politics. This has resulted to much resistance from himself and his supporters, by demanding free and fair nominations.
what ODM supporters in Nyali politics are keen is not to have a repetition of what happened in the last general elections when Joho forced an ODM candidate by the name MCHARO who later lost to wiper candidate AWITI.
The questions many are asking, why is it that those many supporters of Joho are supporting Saidoo for Nyali race? Will Moha join Wiper?

JICHO PEVU TO LOOSE NYALI SEAT 2017
Nyali politics is considered as the most vigorous and spiral politics in Mombasa county. it has attracted large number of aspirants in consideration that it hosts a population of non indigenous people.
The exit of the incumbent MP Awiti Bolo has created a political space for any Tom, Dick and Hurry that would want to vie. It has attracted MP aspirants like county assembly speaker Thaduis Rajwayi, Said Sirlem (Saidoo), Mwenda Thuranira, Mohammed Ali(Jicho Pevu), Mark Ouma, Yassir Noor, Peter Adalla, Tony Lights and Mcharo and others.
The recent political rival among ODM candidates between Jicho pevu and Saidoo might just cereate a space for another strong candidate with different political party will benefit from the confusion between the unnecessary competition among Saidoo and jicho pevu. it is on the public domain that Joho's family support both Saidoo and Jicho pevu financially and politically but that has created division among the two camps. Team Saidoo believes that there will be No free and fair ODM nomination since they are aware that Jicho Pevu will get direct nomination from Orange House.
the wrangles between the two is only exposing their defeat in Nyali politics 2017 because ODM ticket has never been a guarantee to win parliamentary seat in Nyali. Nyali politics is purely dominated by cosmopolitan nature to which tribes from upcountry will always carry the day on who to support for Nyali seat 2017. Candidates with upcountry origin, have higher chances of winning Nyali seat, but it will depend on who has the best strategy.
Saidoo has a good political experience with Nyali politics and he stands a better chance of beating his rival Jicho pevu, but he may not win Nyali seat. Jicho Pevu had higher chance of winning Nyali seat, but people have started questioning his intention of contesting in Nyali constituency, unlike his first intention of contesting in Mvita. Despite his media skills in fighting human rights, people of Nyali still believe he cannot be a good politician, but he can do well in his media career. it is believed that Jicho Pevu can't name more than two village in a single ward within Nyali constituency. This is an indication that he is not well versed with the geography of Nyali.
Nyali politics will be won by any person who has upcountry background. Is it Rajwayi or Mark Ouma? time will tell.
