Babu Owino's Background 

The early life and education of Babu Owino have always generated talk.

He pursued four degrees at the University of Nairobi. 

He scored first-class honors, noting that he was privileged to attend school considering his poor family background.

In September this year, he spoke in an interview on TV47 where he explained how he rose

“When I was growing my background was so sorry, so poor. We were selling chang’aa, nobody went to school in our house. My mom dropped in Form two, my sister did not get the privilege to go to school and my brother because there was no fee,” he said.

 The ODM legislator said they sat down as a family and agreed that at least one of them was to be taken to school.

“The Actuarial Science First Class Honors was for my mother, then after that I did Masters in Architectural Science for my sister then after that I did LLB Law degree for my brother then Masters in law for myself,” Babu Owino said.

“I wanted to do a degree for everybody in that house so that was the motivation because as we were growing up we were told that education is the key to success so I saw why can’t I have many keys to success," he added.
