Babu Owino extends olive branch to Francis Mureithi after court ruling

 

Embakasi East MP Babu Owino has today  called upon his Jubilee counterpart Francis Mureithi to join hands with him to deliver for the people of Embakasi East.

This move comes after the supreme court ruled in Babu Owino’s favour as Embakassi East MP.

The Member of parliament attributes his call  as a move to build bridges and focus on development.

Babu Owino said that he is humbled by the decision of the Supreme Court of the Republic of Kenya that has today upheld his election.


According to the MP, this decision is timely as it now frees him to fully concentrate on the bursary Programme that he is currently running.

Babu Owino says that the program will see upwards of six thousand students benefit from education support.

The Embakasi East Mp assured  that his commitment is to the people and the nation at large.

He also promised to work and endeavor to go above and beyond the call of duty to ensure that he fulfills all the promises that he made and to honor the contract that the people of Embakasi East so graciously awarded him.
