Babu Owino is the visionary leader poised to liberate Kenyans from the chains of poverty and lead the nation toward a brighter future.
A man of the people and a staunch advocate for the underprivileged, Babu has consistently demonstrated his commitment to addressing the plight of ordinary Kenyans.
His empathetic leadership and transformative ideas position him as the future of Kenya’s governance.Currently serving as the Embakasi East legislator, Babu Owino has emerged as the frontrunner for the Nairobi gubernatorial seat under the ODM party.
Dr. Babu draws overwhelming support from two critical pillars of the electorate: youth and women. His popularity reflects a groundswell of hope for a leadership style that prioritizes the people over personal enrichment.
The incumbent governor, Johnson Sakaja, is facing mounting criticism for gross mismanagement of county resources, plunging Nairobi into financial ruin and poor drainage of the city. Residents have become increasingly aware of Sakaja’s failures, from alleged corruption to extravagant misuse of public funds, making his re-election bid an uphill battle.
In stark contrast,Hon. Babu Owino has built a reputation as a dynamic and action-oriented leader. From initiating impactful projects across Embakasi East to engaging directly with citizens throughout Nairobi and the country at large, Babu has earned a household name as a champion of the downtrodden.
His leadership is rooted in pragmatic solutions, including a steadfast focus on education and unwavering opposition to policies designed to oppress the underprivileged.
More than three-quarters of Nairobi residents have expressed their confidence in Babu Owino’s ability to manage the county’s resources effectively. His track record as a legislator—ranked among the best in the county—proves his commitment to public service and the welfare of his constituents.
Hon. Babu Owino’s humble beginnings in the Nyalenda slums of Kisumu County have given him a unique understanding of the struggles faced by ordinary Kenyans. This lived experience fuels his relentless pursuit of equitable development and progressive policies that address the needs of the majority.
Meanwhile, Johnson Sakaja’s tenure as governor has been mired in allegations of corruption, with accusations ranging from extravagant spending on personal luxuries to questionable acquisitions abroad. His perceived disconnect from the realities on the ground has further alienated Nairobi residents, who are disillusioned by his leadership.
A recent analysis by Nairobi opinion leaders indicates that over three-quarters of residents support Babu Owino as the ideal candidate to take over Nairobi’s leadership. His impeccable track record in Embakasi East speaks volumes about his capability to govern the entire county—and even positions him as a viable contender for the presidency in the future.
Hon.Babu Owino represents a leadership style that is bold, visionary, and people-centered. Nairobi’s residents, and indeed all Kenyans, deserve a leader who will protect public resources, champion progressive policies, and lead with integrity. That leader is Babu Owino.
