The Kenya Revenue Authorities, (KRA) earlier today raided Governor Abdulswammad’s radio station under the likeness of tax compliance issues.
While speaking to reporters at Rahma FM, Nassir hinted that the intense inspection by KRA was linked to his recent ban on the sale and distribution of Muguka in Mombasa.
“Today, people have come here with threats. This thing of everyone coming here and when you ask their bosses they tell you they did not send it. It means that people are taking orders from elsewhere.”
Nassir cited four different court orders upholding the ban, firmly stating his refusal to bow to pressure and revoke the ban, especially for the welfare of Mombasa’s residents, particularly its children.
“This is the first time in my life I have served five lawsuits, all because of the use of Muguka. Four of them have ruled in favor of maintaining the ban. The fifth, from Embu where Muguka originates, proposes suspending the ban,” Nassir said.
“We refuse to be intimidated. If you intend to shut down our businesses because of radio broadcasts discussing the harms of Muguka, go ahead. But the recent court orders settled this matter. Our resolve remains unchanged!”
