Embakasi East Member of Parliament Babu Owino and other like minded MPs joined hands to announce a new opposition team to address issues facing kenyans.
The new opposition team according to Babu Owino, will steer the opposition against the government to ensure that the issues of kenyans are well addressed due to the lack of a strong opposition currently.
Members of the new team include MP for Githunguri Constituency Gathoni wa Muchomba, Saboti Constituency MP Caleb Amisi, Charles Nguna, Starehe constituency Amos Mwago, Busia Women representative Catherine Omanyo and MP for Embakasi West Mark Mwenje.

This comes after the former Prime Minister Raila Odinga dedicated his time to the highly contested African Union Chairmanship, engagements that have reduced the fuel for the opposition in the country.
“This team will fight for the voiceless, and their rights in all the 8 regions. We have issues that we will be addressing from time to time. This is the team that will give direction in this country because we have seen a bit of laxity in the opposition.”
Through their spokesperson Babu Owino, the team vowed to help address the ongoing nationwide doctors’ strike, urging the members of the press to be part of the team in relying on their messages
“Not limited to holding rallies, not limited to calling for maandamano’s; regional in all counties and constituencies.”

In their first engagement, the MPs further threatened to file an impeachment motion against CS Nakhumicha if she failed to address the doctors’ strike that has since paralysed the health sector country-wide
They also vowed to take action against Agriculture CS Mithika Linturi over what they termed as duty negligence over the failure to tame the fake fertiliser menace and for the delayed distribution of subsidised fertilisers.
