Babu was charged in June 2016 over a clip in which he warned Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria about alleged calls for Cord leader Raila Odinga to be assassinated.

Milimani senior principal magistrate Kennet Cheruiyot said that the prosecution failed to prove its case against the students leader.

Babu was accused of hate speech, after warning Kuria that he would "face dire consequences" for threatening Raila.
