Babu Owino’s directive of Kenyans defaulting on their hustler fund sparks debate.
During the Kamukunji consultative rally, Embakasi East member of parliament, Babu Owino urged Kenyans to take the hustler fund and default on paying.
He stated,” I want to tell Ruto, we will oppose every bad thing you do in this country, because that’s our inherent duty.
“Hustler fund should be a grant not a loan. President Ruto said during the campaigns that this money was to be given for free and not refunded.”
However, Babu Owino’s directive of Kenyans defaulting on this loan has raised opinions.
Kibet wrote,”Babu owino telling Kenyans not to pay hustlers fund failure to pay you go back to poverty and negative credit score even getting a 50 bob loan will be a challenge.”
Jimmy wrote,”Babu Owino is trashing hustler fund and here is what it has done for me. I only received 700 and added my savings 800. Went to the market got nice fish.
Kijana ya Starehe commented,”Babu Owino is a one rare gem, clearly he’s not buying into the theatrics of Nabii Husler…I’m obliged to think that ‘Baba’ is being reborn in form of ‘Babu’. He deserves an inevitable reward let’s wait for the most appropriate moment, miaka kumi si mingi.”
Neville stated,”Babu Owino instructed Kenyans not to pay the Hustler Fund loan citing enough space in prisons to accommodate defaulters. He doesn’t reckon that the government can with hold his salary and use it as guarantee in case of default. Usicheze na serikali nanii.
Eunice stated,”Babu Owino still has a Helb loan. I am not amused by his advice to azimio not to pay Hustler Fund. He is a certified default.”
Steve wrote,”Both Edwin Sifuna and Babu Owino have urged hustlers not to pay back. Fine, CRB is still working, the day you will need a bigger facility from a bank with that bad credit history is the day you will remember these Leaders. They will lend you their money.”
