Babu Owino Crowned Luo Elder in Nairobi Ceremony

On July 30, Luo elders gathered in Nairobi to coronate Embakasi East MP Babu Owino as an elder and head of the Nairobi Luo Council of Elders.

He described the honor as freeing him to build cross-community friendships for his 2027 Nairobi governor bid, pledging to promote harmony and development.

Days later on August 1, he visited longtime friend former Governor Mike Sonko, where they discussed city challenges in a warm reunion.

These steps highlight his strategic push to widen support ahead of 2027 elections.
