Babu Owino speaks on DJ Evolve’s progress in hospital

Embakasi East Babu Owino on Thursday revealed that he has been paying DJ Evolve’s hospital bills, adding that the DJ will soon be discharged from hospital.

Speaking during an interview with Jalang’o, Babu stated that there was a time the bill got to Sh15million but he has been in constant touch with the family.

“There’s no saint without a past. I cannot change my past but I can change my future.

“Every other thing that happened is between me and God and I chose to forgive myself,” he said.

Adding that on humanitarian grounds he agreed to pay Evolve’s hospital bill.

“He is a very good friend of mine…let no man judge me.”

In March, Justice Luka Kimaru ruled that Babu could not be forced to pay for DJ Evolve's medical bill in criminal proceedings.

The judge however observed that Babu could continue paying for the DJ’s medical bills on moral grounds.

The MP had been freed on January 27 after pleading not guilty to charges of attempted murder and carrying a firearm while drunk and disorderly.

Chief Magistrate Francis Andayi had ordered him to deposit the amount (Sh10million) in court in four equal installments of Sh2.5 million each.

He was further directed to deposit two sureties of a similar amount and his passport.
