Embakasi East Member of Parliament Babu Owino has catered for all the medical bills for the man in a shooting incident at B-club, Nairobi.
Speaking to journalists, the MP’s Lawyer Cliff Ombeta said that Babu Owino helped ferrying Felix Orinda aka DJ Evolve to the hospital and paid the medical bills.
“He is the one who held the man and took him to the hospital. He is the one who has paid for all his medical bills and admission cost, “said Ombeta.
When asked on the exact happenings of what transpired in the popular club, the lawyer declined to comment stating that he will interfere investigations despite having knowledge of what happened.
“I cannot comment on that at the moment since investigations are underway. If I start talking about the incident, I will interfere with the investigations and once you start explaining it, then that makes you a witness and I was not there. But I know what the story is,” he continued.
The legislator also came out and gave his side of the story saying that the incident is a culmination of death threats he has been receiving since 2019.
“At the turn of the year, I reported an attempted assassination at the Parliament Police Station under OB number OB21/17/11/2019 at 17:28hrs. I have been living under the weight of intimidation and threats by my political opponents.
“Yesterday was the culmination of these efforts by my enemies. While enjoying the company of my friends at a popular Nairobi restaurant, I was surrounded by a large group of aggressive individuals.
“In the melee, there was an exchange of gunfire,”
He urged his supporters to remain calm as police do the investigations saying that he will continue to serve the country fearlessly.
