Babayao declines live TV face off with Kabogo


Outspoken politician Ferdinand Waititu has chickened out of a live TV interview which would have seen him come face to face with his nemesis and Kiambu governor William Kabogo.

The Kabete MP opted out of Wednesday’s popular Jeff Kionange Live show, a session that would have seen him face off with Kabogo.

This development was confirmed by the show host, seasoned journalist Jeff Koinange via his Twitter handle.

Waititu who is seeking to unseat Kabogo, has been involved in a long running public spat with his rival for the better part of the past year.

The differences between the two leaders escalated when Kabogo moved to court challenge the former Embakasi MP’s academic qualifications.

Waititu also recently added “Babayao” to his official name in a move that elicited mixed reactions from social media.
