National Super Alliance (NASA) legislators are expected to visit Embakasi East Member of Parliament Babu Owino at Parklands Police Station.
The Sunday visit comes just a day after NASA leader Raila Odinga checked on Owino at the facility.
ODM Party Director of Communications, Philip Etale confirmed the visit.
“NASA Legislators will today at 1:30 pm visit their colleague Babu Owino at Parklands Police Station,” Etale tweeted.
Babu Owino was arrested on Friday afternoon following accusations of assaulting a parking attendant in Westlands, Nairobi on January 11.
He spent Friday and Saturday night in police cells and is expected to be arraigned in court on Monday.
On Saturday, University of Nairobi students also staged protests in the city demanding Babu Owino’s release but they were repulsed by anti-riot police.
This is the second time in less than six months that the legislator has been arrested.
