A politician says a colleague pulled a gun on him during a restaurant argument. Embakasi East MP Babu Owino reported an attack by Kileleshwa MCA Robert Alai at a Kilimani establishment. According to Owino, Alai confronted him over alleged social media attacks against the MCA's wife, a claim the MP denies.
Owino stated the encounter turned physical, with Alai shoving him, displaying a firearm, and striking him. The MP alleges Alai later threw a glass of water at him before he left the scene. Owino filed a formal complaint at Kilimani Police Station, framing the incident as a serious threat to his life. He connected it to a pattern of harassment he claims to have faced since the death of ODM leader Raila Odinga.
Police confirmed both individuals reported the incident and are reviewing CCTV footage as part of an ongoing investigation. Authorities are working to establish the full circumstances surrounding the confrontation.
