End of an Era; Nairobi University’s Babu Owino Opts Out of SONU

Babu Owino - from Ghafla.co.ke

Everything that has a beginning definitely has an ending too; the reign of Babu Owino as the students’ leader at the University of Nairobi is coming to an end at completion n of his term in office.

He is definitely one of the most outspoken leaders that Kenya’s most prestigious university has ever had; the eloquent and courageous Babu has been loved and hated almost at an equal measure. A darling of students but a nightmare to the like of HELB CEO Charles Ringera and Education cabinet secretary Prof. Jacob Kaimenyi. It may be a reprieve for the latter to know that Babu will be no longer seeking to defend his seat at the helm of SONU as he is planning to fry bigger fish.

Babu through his official Facebook page noted that he would not be vying for SONU chairmanship position as he will officially be joining the national politics. He has not disclosed what party he will be joining but sure Nairobi University will miss a guy with such vigor.
