Former Likoni MP Masoud Mwahima has passed away at the age of 78.
The retired politician succumbed to asthma complications at his home in Vyemani, Mombasa on Monday night, according to his family.
The deceased’s son, Juma Mwahima said his father had been admitted to the hospital until Sunday when he was discharged after his condition improved.

President Kenyatta mourned Mwahima as a statesman, witty leader, and astute grassroots mobilizer.
“Mzee Mwahima was an approachable, witty and, visionary elder and leader who offered wise counsel and outstanding service to the people of Mombasa especially his Likoni Constituency for decades.”
“As a politician, Mzee Mwahima was a strong champion for community development projects, a trait that enabled him to rise through Mombasa politics having served as a Councilor, Mayor of Mombasa and MP for Likoni Constituency for two terms,” Uhuru said in a message of condolence to the family, friends, and relatives of Mwahima.
