Embakasi East MP Babu Ownio has opened up to a recent media report that he plans to spend Sh11 million to buy Kenyan Premier League football club Wazito FC.
On Monday, Babu did not deny the reports that he was interested in buying Wazito FC but added that it was not a priority at the moment.
The vocal politician was speaking during an interview with Citizen TV, a day after Nairobi News reported details of his alleged plans to buy the football club.
"That is not a priority at the moment. I would rather use that money in helping my people including the footballers," the MP stated.
