Embakasi East MP Babu Owino is a man under fire after he took to his social media pages to threaten a loss of lives and properties after the 2022 general elections if the referendums will not have taken place before then.
In his Facebook post, Owino goes on to urge Kenyans to prepare themselves for the incoming change of constitution andΒ Opposition Leader Raila Odinga as the 2022 successor of Uhuru Kenyatta.
“We must change the constitution and Raila MUST be the PRESIDENT in 2022. Kenyans must prepare for a Referendum to avoid loss of lives and destruction of properties after elections”.
Kenyans who have now taken to the social media to blast the MP over his ‘insensitive’ post claiming that it is bound to incite violence in the country . Other Kenyans are now calling on the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI ) for his arrest.
But @DCI_Kenya and @ODPP_KE @NCIC_Kenya cannot see this as incitement to violence. They will go for Governor @Araap_Sang for reclaiming grabbed public land.

Kenya Belongs to 46 million citizens, we are not your Subjects, your threats & that of the entire ruling Elites is a grevious abuse to our fundamental rights.
Kenya is greater than @RailaOdinga
The more reason Kenyans need seriously considering @EAukot #PunguzaMizigoBill2019β S. W. Ngigi (@SuleiNGI) August 9, 2019
In this your tweet, it is clear fact that Musando death baby Pendo death and supporters destroying people’s properties was a table plan.π

A good number of other Kenyans as well accused him and the Building Initiative Team for making efforts to force Kenyans into the controversial referendum.
Some who read malice in the need for a referendum as well as rubbished his calls.
Are we changing the constitution for individuals? What a loose tongue from a Honourable member. I thought we agreed Kenya is bigger than any single person. #PunguzaMizigo

Must??? Why…… We will vote with our conscience na hata referendum will be a wananchi decision and not political

No problem…..this are your ideas….but avoid the word *MUST* because it means something else

Raila ain’t going to be president thru the back door, unless he shoots his way there assisted by his bro. However, if they think they can do that they better remember not only them posses weapons in the Kenya of today. We refused Raila presidency purposely & nobody’ll impose him.

Here is what other Kenyans have to say on Babu Owino’s post;
babu thats is not good at all

We will reject such proposals… We have never witnessed destruction of property and loss of lives in USA and other countries with similar constitutional framework. @RailaOdinga will never be president ata katiba ibadilishwe mara ngapi.

Are you insinuating that destruction of property is because of Baba? Some of Babaβs henchmen should just zip their mouths. Wakiongea, kura mingi zinapotea!

btw this is why he will still be on the streets screaming IEBC must go and inhaling teargas but I guess thats why he is trying to get to power through the back door yet again as is his custom becos he knows he cant hack it at the ballot box.
