Embakasi East Member of Parliament Babu Owino on Sunday, March 25 posted a picture of an alleged conman warning his residents to beware. The response he got from his Facebook followers is far from what he expected as many asked him to use proper channels in handling the matter.
The MP posted a picture of one Benard Omondi who he claimed was using his name to con residents by promising them tenders. He also urged anyone who would come across the said conman to notify the police.
Mr. Owino’s followers, however, we quick to question why he was reporting the matter on a social media platform rather than reporting Benard to the police.
Others told the MP that he is acquitted to the said perpetrator and should talk to him without engaging followers on Facebook.
Here are some of the responses the early morning post attracted;
