Robert Alai Claims Winnie Odinga Senate Bid Targets Babu Owino
Robert Alai claims Winnie Odinga's reported plan to run for Nairobi Senator is a strategic move to block Babu Owino from seeking the governorship.
Kileleshwa Member of County Assembly Robert Alai claims that Winnie Odinga's reported plan to run for the Nairobi senatorial seat is a strategic maneuver designed to block Embakasi East MP Babu Owino from pursuing the Nairobi governorship.
Alai asserts that Odinga's potential candidacy under Edwin Sifuna's Linda Mwananchi faction would effectively end Owino's gubernatorial ambitions, though he noted it would not impact Lang'ata MP Phelix Odiwuor. These claims surface as political figures begin positioning themselves for elective seats ahead of the 2027 General Election.
There is currently no public record of Winnie Odinga stating that her potential candidacy is intended to obstruct Owino.
