Mwakwere disclosed that he had received numerous calls from home (Kwale) urging him to follow up on the arrest and establish the whereabouts of Swazuri as well as his safety.
“I just got phone calls from home that Mohamed Swazuri is held somewhere in Nairobi…so I have come to confirm whether he is here or not, whether he is safe or not I want to know why he is being held..I am interested to know what is going on.” Mwakwere said.

“I’m a Kenyan and if there is any Kenyan with a problem, it is my right to know what that problem is. I come from Kwale and if anybody from Kwale has a problem I have to know what that problem is.” He added.
Mwakwere who resigned from his post as Kenya’s envoy to Tanzania lost last year’s gubernatorial race to Jubilee’s Salim Mvurya.
