Comedian Eunice Mammito has sparked reactions online after criticizing Embakasi East MP Babu Owino for his recent announcement that he plans to conduct KCSE revision sessions with students across the country.
Mammito, known for her sharp humor and social commentary, took a playful yet pointed jab at the outspoken legislator, questioning whether he truly understands his role as a Member of Parliament.
“Haujui kazi yako,” Mammito said, in response to Babu’s education initiative that has been trending on social media.
Babu Owino, who has in previous years tutored KCSE candidates in mathematics through online lessons, recently revealed his intention to resume the program, saying he is passionate about helping students excel regardless of their background.
While many Kenyans praised the MP for his dedication to education and mentorship, Mammito’s comment highlighted the ongoing debate about whether politicians should focus on their legislative duties or social initiatives outside Parliament.
Social media users reacted with mixed opinions — some agreeing with Mammito that Babu should prioritize lawmaking and constituency development, while others defended him, saying his revision sessions have positively impacted thousands of students nationwide.
The light exchange between the comedian and the MP adds to the ongoing conversation about the roles and responsibilities of leaders — and how far they should go in engaging the public beyond politics.
