BABU OWINO ADMITTED TO THE BAR AS AN ADVOCATE OF THE HIGH COURT OF KENYA

Embakasi East Member of Parliament Hon. Babu Owino, has been admitted to the Bar as an Advocate of the High Court Of Kenya.

In an statement following his admission, Babu opened on his journey from the slums of Nyalenda to the halls of justice, “Growing up in the slums of Nyalenda, I noticed with deep concern the constant harassment and humiliation of ordinary Kenyans in the brutal hands of law enforcement agencies most of the time without a clue of what their constitutional rights were. My mother got arrested severally and instead of being arraigned in court would be beaten up by police to pay a bribe from her meagre chang’aa sales proceeds.”

The MP said that his legal qualification isn’t about personal prestige but to serve the mwanainchi, “This achievement is not about personal grandiosity. It is about sharpening the tools of service. The law is now a new battlefield where I will fight even harder for justice, equity, and the rights of the common mwananchi. 

He issued a warning to authorities, “The Government should brace itself for more lethal arguments in defense of Kenyans both in Parliament and now in court. Expect legal action aimed at lowering the cost of living, creating jobs, and holding systems accountable. The revolution continues, now with a gown and a gavel. So, help me, God.”
