The Embakasi East Member of Parliament Paul Ongili alias Babu Owino has come a long way to become what he is today.
The controversial politician who hails from Kisumu shares a very encouraging story since his early life in both Kisumu and Eldoret.
Babu was born in a humble background, and at some point, she was forced to adjourn his academic studies to look for school fees.
However, the most interesting section of his story was his closeness to former Libyan President Muammar Gaddafi.
The difficult question is not only when did they become friends, but how did they meet with the high profile personality in the world.
During an interview on the national television, Babu said that he became a financial orphan when the Ex-Libyan president got killed.
"I was financially orphaned when Gaddafi was killed. Long ago, Libya’s late president, Muammar Gadaffi used to be my best friend, and he used to finance me. When he passed on, I became a financial orphan and decided to look for other international friends," said Babu.
He added that their friendship came about when he was a student in the University of Nairobi.
