Tuesday, February 4, 2025 - Embakasi East MP, Babu Owino, has condemned his December 2024 detention by Tanzanian authorities at Julius Nyerere International Airport.
In a letter to President Samia Suluhu Hassan, he termed the
incident a violation of his rights as a Kenyan and East African Legislative
Assembly (EALA) member.
Owino protested the "unjustified" detention,
demanding accountability and emphasizing his diplomatic standing within the
East African region.
When sharing copies of the letter on his socials, the vocal
MP wrote:
“Tanzanian President Suluhu should explain to the Great
People of Embakasi East Republic and Kenyans why her Government detained me for
3 Hours at Julius Nyerere International Airport.
“When she comes to Kenya we welcome her as a friend but when
a sitting member of Parliament goes to Tanzania she frustrates him.
“This is unacceptable.”
