Embakasi East MP Babu Owino is under fire from Kenyans online over his tweet about ODM leader Raila Odinga’s presidential bid.
In a post on Twitter on Thursday night, Babu wrote that Raila will become Kenya’s president in 2022 by “ballot or bullet,” a tweet that did not augur well with social media users.
“This time Raila will be the President by ballot or bullet,” Babu tweeted.
Online users were not amused with Babu’s tweet and some called for his arrest over alleged incitement.
@TomOlango3 wondered: “Sometimes I don’t understand you. Do you have mental problems?”
@MurigiKamaa said: “And then someone will ask why Raila has never been president. The answer is in this tweet. Jakom is a great leader but this kind of sentiments ultimately are a hindrance to his leading Kenya.”
@georgemarkyn tweeted: “I thought you had the potential to lead one day,,, but my four year old is more mature than you… a leader should not advocate, propagate or insinuate quarter the crap you feed us on your socials. your wife and everyone associated with you must be totally ashamed. Grow up dude!”
@JoyJebiwot stated: “You were elected to represent the youths now you are representing a 70year old babu.”
@KalosSays noted: “Same Rubbish! Said by the same Nimcoompoop! BYW, ulitengeneza Fedha Road ama ni bangi tu hapa Twitter?”
@Gideon_Kitheka said: “Ujinga ya hali ya njuu. Foolishness of the highest order.”
Babu was arrested on Friday morning for allegedly shooting a DJ at B-Club in Nairobi’s Kilimani area. Owino is said to have shot the man identified as Felix Orinda, aka DJ Evolve, on the neck after quarreling over reasons that are yet to be known, according to police.
He is currently being held at Kilimani Police Station pending investigations into the incident.
These leaders need to…
These leaders need to understand the signs of times and fulfillment of prophecies. Power is passing from oppressive nations and their aids in Africa and the world to real spiritual powers.
Does Raila have spiritual powers? Or is he part of a passing cloud?
We have to wait and see!!
You Just reminded me of the…
You Just reminded me of the Late Elijah MWANGALE and his “Passing Cloud” saying in the Moi era. Anyway: By Crude, Cranny, and RIGGING never will Raila become President of Kenya. It happened in 2007, 2013, 2017. But may the LORD forbid.?
You are the Controller of…
You are the Controller of your Own Destiny. Don’t blame it on someone, or something else, because by doing so, you acknowledge that whoever is ‘mistreating’ you has power over you. It is your acknowledged acceptance of this power that actually gives the power, regardless or your verbal denials. Remember that Moi was a ‘passing cloud’, but went on to rule Kenya for 24 years. Mwai Kibaki was demoted from being VP, but succeeded Moi. Uhuruto were the same team that were Aninihilated by NARC in 2003, but they learned from their mistakes, and rode to Victory in 2013. Stop thinking that tricks will get you anywhere, and join the practical World. If they haven’t worked before, don’t expect them to work in the future. History is the best teacher.
Once fools like this talk…
Once fools like this talk like this they take 1million votes away from their Baba.
@ Mugikuyu. I thought RAO…
@ Mugikuyu. I thought RAO said that he would not run in 2022…I am hoping that Raila will distance himself from this madman before he does more harm.
Unbelivable to think that he is an MP.This is a loose cannon. He just attempted murder few hours ago…
I Plead to his family ,and true friends to taking him to hospital for mental evaluation.And if he is on medication,please make sure that he stays on it,because his erratic actions are not of that of a normal person.
@Maxiley, his friends…
@Maxiley, his friends include his “mama”Passaris who is currently nursing a back surgery. Too bad no one else is there to guide him as RAO is thinking of creating a post for himself come 2022.
this Kid belongs in kamiti…
this Kid belongs in kamiti. Too much cocaine and drugs
@Babu – your ranting makes…
@Babu – your ranting makes you look severely retarded!
No one will become the president of the Republic of Kenya through the bullets. Ballots have always worked fairly well, and will work even better in 2022.
We are far beyond the nonsense you are talking about the bullets. Who gave you a gun and did you get properly trained because you seem to be trigger happy going by the shooting you did to a DJ on Friday night. Guns, alcohol (too much Gin and Tonic; plus a whole lot of shagaa mixed with Busaa) and sheer boyish stupidity do not mix!
Stop behaving like a crawling little boy; you are now the MP of Embakasi; and your words and actions matter.
You should spend your time serving those who elected you and stop politicking. – it is 2020 – and elections are due in 2022, three years away.
Nothing is written in “STONE” and a whole lot will change along the way to 2022!
Mama used to tell me it is better for her to bear a “thief” instead of giving birth to a ”foolish boy kid”! I’m not sure where you now fall in between a “fool” and a “thief”!!
So he has been thinking…
So he has been thinking about killing somebody even before he shot a DJ in a night club.
These are the kind of…
These are the kind of sentiments that make the top seat elusive for baba. He and his followers think that they can ‘trick’ their way into power, without following the rules, or the proper channels. It has never worked, but they don’t change. Insanity is repeating the same thing over and over again, and expecting different results.
Please don’t call this boy…
Please don’t call this boy in a man’s body a leader. He is just a fool with very little brain. He should be charged with incitement. He should be jailed and forced to resign. What stupidity! What a fool!
N u wonder why we the…
N u wonder why we the gikuyus insist of circumcision???Ihiiii ya iciii ciikwenda kuninwo kabisa.This idiot abused uhuru b4 badly n uhuru was silent???He shoukd thsnk his God n remember somebody like JM kariuki,mswado,JAcob Juma,saitoti to name few.
