Owino had posted, "William Ruto Chased from a Hotel in New York."

The post immediately generated heat on facebook, with many critics using strong words to disapprove what the UoN student leader had posted.

They accused him of manipulating information doing rounds on social media and condemned the student leader for using the issue to settle personal scores with the Deputy President.

Julius Cheserek posted,

“There is difference between "chased away" and opting out for another hotel. You wanted to claim some mileage out of it.”

“Boss, don’t try to make fun with someone who is far far away from where you have reached. You are still very young,” read another response by Zalon Kiguru Mwangi.

Owino later succumbed to pressure and pulled down the post.

Deputy President William Ruto is alleged to have fallen out with his hotel management in New York which forced the team of delegates to book rooms elsewhere.
