Embakasi East Member of Parliament Babu Owino has pleaded with President Uhuru Kenyatta to rescue his political career following talks with National Super Alliance (NASA) Collation leader Raila Odinga to work together.
Babu wants President Kenyatta’s intervention after his election was nullified by the High Court following a petition challenging his election.
While speaking in Parliament, Babu commended Raila Odinga and President Kenyatta for agreeing to put their political differences aside and work together saying it will help grow the country and create employment opportunities.
“As Babu Owino, just like stories in the Bible about Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who were put in a furnace to burn to death for failing to obey the king, but came out of the furnace stronger.”
“I would like to tell the president, Uhuru Kenyatta, that he has put Babu Owino in the fire, and he has burned and he is strong. I do not want to be stronger than this, let him remove me from the fire,” said Babu.
“For the will of the Embakasi East residents to be recognised and respected then President Kenyatta and Raila Odinga must continue to dialogue,” he added.
