Former Budalangi MP Ababu Namwamba has hit out at Embakasi East MP Babu Owino, telling him to style up and exercise mature politics.Speaking during an interview on Citizen TV on Monday, Ababu said Owino has to change his style of politics, adding that he is a letdown and a bad example to young politicians.Ababu said Owino is no longer in university student and thus has to carry himself responsibly as an elected leader.The former ODM secretary general condemned Owino's abusive remarks directed at President Uhuru Kenyatta and his family, saying that the Embakasi East MP lacked respect and demeaned the presidency."It is time Babu Owino realised that he is serving his Embakasi East constituents in the National Assembly and not students in university," said Ababu.He, however, said Owino will have a great political future if he changes the way he carries himself.Owino was arrested on Monday evening by CID detectives for insulting the President.The youthful MP is alleged to have made the remarks on Sunday during a NASA rally in Kawangware.His remarks sparked protests in some parts of Kiambu with residents and politicians calling for his arrest.
