Students Organisation of Nairobi University chairman Babu Owino was on Thursday charged with incitement.

He is alleged to have uttered words to the effect that Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria and his Bahati counterpart Kimani Ngunjiri would “face dire consequences” over anti-Raila Odinga remarks.

Mr Owino is alleged to have made the statement during a press conference at Orange House on June 13.

The prosecution objected to his release on bond.

The magistrate will rule on the bond application in the afternoon.
