Talented musicians in Embakasi East, Nairobi will soon stand a chance to win free studio recording and video shoots courtesy of their able MP- Babu Owino.

One of Babu’s campaign pledges was to support talented youths in his constituency and he has finally taken the first step towards this. The first-time lawmaker is planning to start a talent search competition that will see five contenders walk away with goodies.

While details are still scanty, we understand the competition will run for one month and local Kenyan act – Gabu – will be heavily involved.

Babu and the “Simple Lover” hitmaker held a meeting yesterday to discuss details of the prospective talent search.

Taking to the gram, Gabu who is one-third of the now-defunct group P-Unit, wrote: “Great meeting with my good friend @he.babuowino.Thank you for inviting me to your office #Timetowork #Talentsearch”

Babu Owino pledged to pay studio recording and video shoot for the top five contenders.
