Embakasi East MP Babu Owino has today dared authority to arrest helb defaulters.
The Vocal Mp also issued a stern warning to the officers saying that they will see fire if they make such an attempt to arrest the youth for not paying helb loans.
Babu Owino also reiterated to his enduring commitment to the youth agenda and in particular, that of comrades studying in our institutions of Higher Learning.
The Member of Parliament also opposed the proposal by Vice Chancellors of Universities to increase fees in the coming financial year.
Babu Owino cautioned them to expect fire and brimstone from him if they dare make such a move.
” Education is a human right not a luxury. These university CEOs need to realize that education is not a preserve of the rich. If it were not for education, I would not be where I am today and I will not accept for my fellow youths to be locked out of opportunities.” he said
Babu Owino said that they will no longer tolerate this abuse of young people by the establishment.
He also added that he is rallying support for a bill in parliament to make it illegal for Government to request for work experience, HELB clearance, CRB clearance or any other clearance that will require candidates to pay when hiring.
