Peter Kaluma has thrown big words at Babu Owino and he is not holding back. He says that Babu Owino made a very big mistake when he decided to support Rigathi Gachagua instead of Raila Odinga and the ODM Party.
Kaluma says that Babu Owino thought that by backing Gachagua, he will get the votes from his in-laws and then use that support to try and become the next Nairobi governor.
But Kaluma says this plan was very wrong from the start. He says he told Babu Owino not to do this, but Babu did not listen.
Kaluma is now saying that the plan is finished. The very people that Babu Owino thought will vote for him, the in-laws, have turned their back on him. They have dropped him. Kaluma is telling Babu Owino to face the truth and listen to what is happening now.
He is saying that Babu Owino should go back to Embakasi East, where he is the current MP, and stop trying to fight a battle that is very dangerous and maybe impossible to win.
Kaluma says this mistake is serious. Babu Owino put himself against ODM, one of the strongest parties in Kenya, and he also went against Raila Odinga, who is a very big leader.
By doing this, he made many people angry and he also risked losing support from people who were helping him.
Kaluma says this move will make Babu Owino lose even more support and maybe even lose his chance to do well in future elections.
Kaluma wants Babu Owino to know that politics is not small game. He says you must know who is with you and who is not. If you think people will help you and they don’t, then you will fall.
That is exactly what is happening now. Babu Owino thought his in-laws will stand with him, but they have left him. Kaluma is telling him to be careful and not to lose more.
In the end, Kaluma says simple words: Babu Owino did wrong, in-laws have left, ODM is still strong, and Babu should go back to Embakasi East before everything is lost. He is warning Babu to save what he still has. Politics is tough, and one wrong move can make you fall very hard.
