Babu reads riot act to ‘double-dealer’ bloggers in Linda Mwananchi
Babu said the movement would not tolerate individuals he described as “traitors” who had infiltrated its ranks to undermine its political mobilisation.
Nairobi gubernatorial candidate Babu Owino delivered a strong message to bloggers and political figures who allegedly served both the Linda Mwananchi opposition movement and President William Ruto's government during a rally in Meru on Sunday. He labeled those individuals as "traitors" and warned that the Linda Mwananchi movement would not tolerate their dual allegiance.
The opposition leader urged supporters to make a clear commitment to the movement, either fully backing it or supporting President Ruto. Babu claimed that the movement was being targeted by individuals sent to disrupt its efforts and discourage loyalty. He emphasized that Linda Mwananchi would not be swayed or undermined. The opposition figure shared the stage with Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna and former Meru governor Kawira Mwangaza, among other opposition supporters.
Babu reaffirmed his full support for Sifuna, dismissing any notion of conflict within the opposition ranks. He called for opposition leaders to unite before the 2027 presidential election, arguing that President Ruto's defeat was possible only if rival opposition forces joined forces.
