Governor Joho Grants First Wife Madina Fazzini A Divorce

Mombasa governor Hassan Joho is okay with divorcing his Italian wife, Madina Giovanni Fazzini.

Appearing before Mombasa Chief Kadhi’s court, Joho consented to ending his marriage with Fazzini.

Fazzini filed for divorce on January 26, 2022 arguing that there was no hope or possibility of reconciliation or compromise of whatsoever nature or kind between her and Joho.

She also noted that the union should be dissolved as she and the county boss separated in 2013.

“I am clear and unequivocal that our marriage has broken down irretrievably with no chance of revival given we have both moved on over the years,” said the petitioner in an affidavit.

According to her, Joho moved out of their matrimonial home in 2013, two years after they got married.

Court papers show that they exchanged vows on February 11, 2011 and had two children aged nine and eight.

“Since the respondent Joho moved out of our matrimonial home in June 2013, the substance of our marriage has dissipated and has no basis to be sustained from a legal and social standpoint,” she added.

She also told the court that she stayed at their matrimonial home until September 2020 but has since then been living on her own.

She also attached a marriage certificate and birth certificates of the two children she bore with Joho.
