Embakasi East Member of Parliament Babu Owino has sent another message to President Uhuru Kenyatta hours after being released from custody.
Speaking during a rally in Kibera, Babu told Kenyatta that if he is unable to compete politically with people of his calibre, he should go to Embakasi East and face him.
"Kama umeshindwa na siasa na rika yako, kuja Embakasi East nikunyoroshe asubuhi na mapema," stated Babu amid cheers from the crowd that had gathered.
He further told the President that he will not be intimidated by the police or the bullet.

Owino was released on Thursday after spending two nights in police cells.
The MP was facing charges of inflicting grievous harm to a voter, Joshua Otieno Obiende, on the August 8th, 2017. Mr Otieno was also seeking the Embakasi East parliamentary seat on an ANC Party ticket.
The Kibra Law Courts granted Mr Owino a cash bail of Sh200,000 or a bond of Sh500,000.
The presiding magistrate warned Owino not to interfere with or intimidate witnesses or risk cancellation of bond.
In granting bail, the Court stated that the prosecution did not give compelling reasons as to why Babu should be detained.
Owino was also accused of using force contrary to election laws on the same day as he assaulted Mr Obiende in the company of others.
The prosecution argued that if Owino is found guilty he should be jailed for life for possible contravention of Chapter Six of the Constitution and Leadership and Integrity Act.
He was earlier this week arrested after making derogatory statements about the Presidency during a rally in Kawangware.
