Watching grown politicians brawl inside fancy restaurants really restores faith in leadership. Kileleshwa Member of County Assembly Robert Alai dismissed claims that he brandished a firearm during a confrontation with Embakasi East MP Babu Owino at a Kilimani establishment. He insists the weapon never left his waist despite the heated exchange.
Alai says the lawmaker approached his table uninvited to discuss political deals. The MCA reportedly rejected these advances and asked to be left alone. He admits to pushing Owino physically but denies drawing the pistol. He argues that onlookers merely spotted the gun because his shirt accidentally revealed it during the scuffle.
Babu Owino tells a totally different story about unprovoked aggression. The MP alleges Alai attacked him over supposed online insults targeting the MCA's wife. Owino claims the situation turned violent when his counterpart whipped out the firearm and struck him on the jaw while terrified diners watched.
Alai challenged accusers to produce video footage proving he threatened anyone. Both men stick to contradicting narratives regarding who started the mess. This public spat highlights the fragile egos clashing within Nairobi City County leadership circles.
