Embakasi East MP Babu Owino was back on the spotlight as the BBI campaign pitched camp in Narok.

Babu finally made his first appearance in public since his arrest after shooting a DJ in a club in Nairobi.

The controversial politician was given a warm welcome as he made his way to the platform designated for the leaders in attendance.

The crowd that was elated to see the lawmaker, demanded him to address them.

The legislator once granted the opportunity, left the crowd clutching their ribs in laughter with a funny remark.

According to Babu, not even the Coranavirus fever could match that of the BBI.

“Hii BBI fever iko stronger than coronavirus(This BBI fever is stronger than that of the Coronavirus),” remarked the lawmaker.

The crowd was left more jubilated with the renaming of the stadium.

The chief guest ODM leader Raila Odinga announced the decision to change the name of the infrastructure from Narok Stadium to Ole Ntimama Stadium.

The new name was unveiled using a placard brought by Sports CS Amina Mohamed.

Babu seemed to be a man on a run of bad luck after he was apprehended for firing his weapon at DJ Evolve.

The vocal ODM party member was reported to have committed the act after an argument between him and the victim ensued at B-Club.

He was later arraigned at Mlimani Law Courts and charged with attempted murder.

The embattled Babu was, however, set free on a Ksh 10 million bail which would be used to settle the hospital bill incurred by Dj Evolve.

The trouble-laden Babu was instructed to keep off social media and from taking alcohol as the bail conditions.

Residents from the area thronged the meeting in huge numbers.
