Babu Owino’s Homa Bay Order Sparks Mixed Reactions Online
Embakasi East Member of Parliament Babu Owino has once again stirred political debates following his recent remarks during a Linda Mwananchi movement tour in Homa Bay County.
The opposition-aligned group took its regional political drive to Sindo, Homa Bay County, despite stern warnings from local area MP Peter Kaluma, who had explicitly asked the delegation to stay out of his constituency.
Undeterred by the host leaders’ warnings and reports of organized goons blocking key transit routes, the Linda Mwananchi team proceeded with their planned rallies.
However, a viral video recorded during the Sindo stopover has triggered wide discussions across social media platforms. Addressing the gathered crowd, Babu Owino directed local boda boda riders to form a forward vanguard, leading the convoy along the highway toward Homa Bay town.

In the video, the lawmaker instructed the motorcycle operators to take the front line and confront any goons attempting to disrupt the procession, promising that the main vehicle fleet would follow closely behind.
The bold directive has drawn sharp reactions and divided opinions online. Critics and political observers have raised questions regarding the nature of the arrangement, asking whether the lawmaker was deploying the youth as an informal security detail or encouraging crowd-led confrontation.
Others defended the MP, arguing that his statement was a strategic measure to counter voter intimidation and protect the freedom of assembly amid political friction in Nyanza region.
As political temperatures rise ahead of upcoming electoral engagements, the incident highlights the growing tension between regional party stalwarts and emerging political factions attempting to secure grassroot dominance.
