Kenyans have reacted to the news of Embakasi member of parliament Babu Owion having his cash bailed reduced from 10 to 5  million.

The high court reviewed Embakasi East Mp Babu Owino’s bail terms to Sh5 million cash bail with an alternative of Sh 10 million bond with two sureties of a similar amount.

Contrary to a lower court order Justice Kimaru has directed that Babu will only help settle DJ Evolve’s hospital bill as a "moral obligation".

“THE ACCUSED PERSON SHOULD CONTINUE PAYING THE HOSPITAL BILL AS A MORAL DUTY TO HIM, NOT AS A COURT ORDER…IF HE FAILS TO PAY IT IS UP TO HIM AND HIS GOD,” KIMARU SAID.

Below are some of the reactions to the news.

@Warugongokristy: I think Babu bail being decreased ni ili aweze (SMH ranging it to humanity form) kulipa bill ya the DJ but according to wen last I checked alisema he will pay the bill.
@MartinRalak: He better hope the DJ doesn't die coz his charge sheet will be amended to murder.
@Superatlantis: But still zombies will wake up at 4 am in the morning to vote for this circus clown and his kind!.
@WycliffeOduor17: You are guilty until proven rich.
@FrancMbursy: And where is Babu Owino, everywhere saying warembo thooo.... and Dj Evolve, fighting for his Life and Medical bill.
@EngEliudkibe: Maybe coronavirus will save us from this hypocrites, wanyanyasaji, hope it will wipe them all so we start afresh, may God help us....a country where justice depends on your pocket,  justice for the poor.
 
@BrayoKarany: Of course they reduced it...slowly hiyo story itaisha na he'll shoot someone else and still walk, must be nice to afford the law
