Former Mombasa county governor Ali Hassan Joho has lit up X after sharing a throwback photo of himself from way back in the day.
The flashy politician known for his sense of style and expensive wardrobe and garage collection, in the spirit of Thursday’s throwback culture where individuals share past photos of themselves mostly from when they were younger or being their glow up/success, took part in the challenge.
Joho graced X users with a never-before-seen before photo of himself as a teenager. In the photo, a skinny Hassan could be seen donning a Afro, a sky blue button-down short-sleeved shirt paired with black pants. He had a coy smile on his face as he leaned posing for the pic.
Captioning the photo he wrote, “When everything was an adventure #tbt.”
Reacting to the post X users shared how fascinated they were with the photo of the former governor with most highlighting it was an inspiration to them and a reminder to not rush life.
Others marveled over the fact that Joho was still a stunner back in the day.
