There is something interesting going on about Malindi Member of Parliament, Aisha Jumwa, that has gotten Kenyans confused.

Ms Jumwa on Thursday morning appeared in a Mombasa Law Court where she was granted Sh1 million bond and a surety of a similar amount with the alternative of Sh500,000 bail, pending trial.

However, her current troubles is not what has captured the attention of the online community, but her sudden change of appearance.

To many online users, the Aisha Jumwa who appeared in court with a clean face and short hair, was in sharp contrast to the well-groomed MP many Kenyans know from public rallies.

Leaving Kenyans on Twitter with a handful of questions.

Jumwa was arrested on Tuesday night after one person was shot dead in a scuffle between rival ODM supporters in Ganda Ward in Malindi, Kilifi County.

The Malindi MP was detained alongside four other people who were in her house when the police stormed in.
