Babu Owino has refuted viral claims that he has called for the firing of 3,800 members of the Nairobi County staff, instead calling for the doubling of their salaries.
The fake post called for the firing of 3,800 members of the Green Army staff employed by the Nairobi City County Government to work on environmental management and cleanliness initiatives across Nairobi.
Established under the Green Nairobi Department, their primary responsibilities include garbage collection, cleaning public spaces, and maintaining a hygienic urban environment.
In a post on his social media, the Embakasi East Member of Parliament dismissed a post from an account purporting that he called for the firing of the staff after the Stima Plaza garbage debacle.
