8th June 2018 will definitely be a date to remember for many Kenyans, politically.
In the space of 20 minutes, Embakasi East Member of Parliament Babu Owino saw his election upheld while Machakos Governor Alfred Mutua’s got nullified.
Babu tightened his grip on the Embakasi East seat after he pulled through an election petition by Jubilee’s Francis Mureithi challenging his election. He was a happy man outside court, thanking everyone who stood by him during the entire process and urged his opponents to wake up and move on.
It's sad that the effects of The Handshakes are felt by the likes of Alfred Mutua and Babu Owino. These are not handshakes but malicious Power sharing deals that can't benefit Kenyans— ©MÛRANG'A FINES†? (@KibugiKibugi) June 8, 2018
Congratulations Hon @Babu_Owino for the win.The High Court judge should be punished for overlooking your double victory.

Alfred Mutua began well but he has faced a lot of bile largely as a result of his aloofness and has really known no peace. Will keep fighting though but this one is a shocker!— Benji Ndolo (@BenjiNdolo) June 8, 2018
