As part of the negotiated deal between Sen Johnson Sakaja and Raila Odinga that led to the release of Babu Owino, the swearing in that was set to take place on 30th January has been called off indefinitely," the controversial MP wrote on Facebook.

I have committed to avail him in court tomorrow,” the Senator stated.
