  • In a tweet, Babu shared a video of President Kenyatta whispering to him, what he claims was the assurance that Odinga will be president in 2022.

Embakasi East Member of Parliament Babu Owino has alleged that President Uhuru Kenyatta recently told him ODM leader Raila Odinga will be President in 2022.

In a tweet, Babu shared a video of President Kenyatta whispering to him, what he claims was the assurance that Odinga will be president in 2022.

In the same tweet, the Embakasi East legislator hailed the President for delivering services to the people of Kenya.

“Thank you very much President Uhuru Kenyatta for overworking and delivering to Kenyans. Watch and listen as Uhuru whispers to me that Baba will be President in 2022,” he tweeted.

The President's recent visit of the Nyanza region was historic as it was the first time the Head of State was leading a national event from Kisumu County.

During the visit, the president launched multi-billion development projects that are expected to open-up the Nyanza region for more development opportunities.

It is worth noting that during the president’s first term, the Nyanza region was sidelined as the country appeared divided between President Kenyatta and Odinga’s supporters.

Between 2013 and 2018, Babu Owino was one of the harshest critics of President Uhuru Kenyatta and was arrested on several occasions for insulting the Head of State.

However, things changed after the handshake between Uhuru and Raila on March 9, 2018.

Following the handshake, Babu started praising Uhuru and has now become one of his top defenders on social media and in different fora.
