Ahmednasir reprimanded Babu for belittling such programs which he suggested has been of service to poor children going to school while starved.

"I'm very disappointed that you aren't aware that thousands of school going children in your constituency leave home every morning hungry and come back hungry. The meal at school is their breakfast/lunch and dinner," said the lawyer.

He called on the MP to shun politicking and Instead rally behind Sakaja to better the lives of Nairobi dwellers.

According to Ahmednasir, Babu's chances to take over Nairobi governorship are assured in the 2032 elections.

"Support Governor Sakaja's noble initiative and improve on when you takeover from him in 2032 InshaAllah," stated Ahmednasir.
