Over the weekend, Babu Owino was elected as the SONU chairman, again. His win however, caused uproar as comrades took to the streets of Nairobi to demonstrate over what they claimed was elections irregularities.

Highways in the Central Business District came to a standstill after the UON students went berserk over his re-election as SONU president, even burning down SONU offices and some  resorting to throwing stones at motorists.

As a number of students had asserted that Babu Owino had rigged the elections with claims that Jacobs was leading in all campuses by midnight Friday the script reportedly clipped when Babu was announced leader by morning the following day.

With many opting to steer aware from the comrade demonstration, activist Boniface Mwangi who has been following the protests broke the ice and said that Babu was simply a criminal under protection by the University administration.

 “Babu Owino is a criminal protected by the state and Nairobi University. Babu victims brutalized for protesting that."

Well, there is no doubt that changes need to be effected in the higher institution of learning otherwise innocent comrades will keep suffering.
