Babu Owino: Government Planning to Hand Me a Death Sentence

Embakasi East Member of Parliament Babu Owino claims that there is a scheme by Jubilee government to hand him a death sentence.

Speaking in an interview on Hot 96FM on Wednesday, the youthful MP accused the government of mistreating him and was planning to charge him with treason, which attracts a death penalty.

There are plans to charge me with treason and hand me a death sentence." He claimed.

The penal code states that “any person who is guilty of the offence of treason shall be sentenced to death.”

The youthful was arrested on Monday last and was charged with subversion, offensive language and incitement to violence. This was after making a slur directed at President Uhuru Kenyatta during a National Super Alliance rally in Nairobi.

He was rearrested shortly after he was released on sh 500,000 cash bail, and was charged with assaulting a voter the following day.

Last week, the former Students Organization of Nairobi University (SONU) chairman alleged that police officers tried to inject him with mercury after sending street children to harass him while at the cell room.

Propaganda! Take your claims to the courts or howl to the birds. Trying to outdo your babu with outrageous claims. No sympathy for you buddy. You dove into muddy water out of your own choice, now swim on your own.

If you are handed a death sentence, take it and wait. Last I heard, there is no hangman in kenya. The last one retired and no one wants the job. So, you will have the sentence but no hang.

Relax Babu. If Raila has not received the death penalty despite all he has done, who are you to get it? You are just a misguided young fellow who might behave much better once Raila retires to Bondo. Hopefully.

Lies, lies and lies. Lad Otieno, save your breath. Nobody, and I repeat, nobody is interested in killing you. The worst outcome that can come out of this is you going to jail for a minimum of six months and then losing your parliamentary seat as a result of it. The best outcome that can come out of this is you going to jail and coming out a man regardless of your jail term. I am not trying to scare you lad Otieno but you are a boy that need to grow up. Prepare to go through the knife.

@ Dr.Koni Hanene,you are right,this lad is a boy that need to grow up. Prepare to go through the knife with his grandfather Ojinga and the likes of Orengo,Mbadi,Opiyo Wandayi and Kaluma.
He is a liar and an attention seeker forgeting that no one even cares that he is breathing right now.
