From Orphan to Parliament: The Inspiring Journey of Hon. Caleb Amisi

Introduction In a captivating interview on Obinna Show Live, Hon. Caleb Amisi, the Member of Parliament for Saboti, shared his remarkable journey from a challenging childhood as an orphan to becoming a prominent figure in Kenyan politics. His story is one of resilience, determination, and an unwavering commitment to serving his community. Hon. Caleb Amisi’s early life was marked by significant adversity. Born around 1985, he was raised by his grandmother after his father passed away and his mother abandoned him. Despite these challenges, he took on menial jobs, such as working as a herdsboy for Ksh200 per weekend, to support his family while in primary school. His academic excellence shone through when he emerged as the top student in Western Kenya in the 2000 Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) examinations. This achievement earned him a place at the prestigious Starehe Boys Centre in 2001, where he continued to excel. It was at Starehe that he first wore shoes, a testament to his humble beginnings. He later pursued a Bachelor’s Degree in Commerce at the University of Nairobi, working to support himself through college due to his lack of a wealthy background. His educational journey laid a strong foundation for his future endeavors. Amisi’s political journey began unexpectedly. Initially, he had no intention of entering politics, focusing instead on supporting other candidates, such as Babu Owinno. However, a pivotal moment came when he met Peter Kenneth, a fellow Starehe Boys alumnus who ran for president in 2012. Inspired by Kenneth’s ambition and proud of a fellow alumnus vying for the presidency, Amisi decided to contest the Saboti constituency seat in the same year. Fresh from university and with limited resources, he borrowed a suit for his ballot photo and managed to secure 4,000 votes, a significant achievement for a first-time candidate. He credits Peter Kenneth for introducing him to politics and inspiring him to believe in his potential. This experience taught him the importance of self-confidence, a message he now passionately shares with young people, encouraging them to trust in their abilities. Hon. Amisi is known for his bold and truthful approach to politics. He has criticized Luhya leaders for focusing on regional kingpin status rather than pursuing a national agenda, which he believes is essential for leadership at the highest level. He stood by Trans Nzoia Governor George Natembeya during his challenges at the International Criminal Court (ICC), emphasizing the need for unity and a broader vision. During the Obinna Show live interview, Amisi did not shy away from critiquing the current administration. He accused the president of being untruthful and unfit to lead any serious government department, drawing on the book Why Nations Fail to argue that leadership is critical to a nation’s development. He noted that Kenya was once on par with Malaysia and Singapore but has lagged due to poor leadership. Amisi’s outspoken nature has not been without controversy. In 2020, he faced an attack by youths in his constituency during a project launch, prompting him to threaten resignation if such incidents continued. More recently, in 2025, he has been at the forefront of ODM’s internal strife, warning of a potential party split if it continues to align with Ruto’s government. His public criticism of party leaders and his refusal to meet President Ruto, even during the handshake period with Uhuru Kenyatta, underscore his commitment to ideological consistency. Conclusion Hon. Caleb Amisi’s journey from an orphan to a two-term MP is a testament to the power of resilience and determination. His commitment to empowering his community, advocating for transparent governance, and pushing for a national agenda makes him a significant voice in Kenyan politics. As he continues to challenge the status quo and inspire the youth, his story serves as a beacon of hope for those facing adversity.

Raw Street Reality: Joakim Simiyu Exposes Kenya’s Political Truths

In a gripping episode of Obinna Show Live – Raw Street Reality, Joakim Simiyu delivered unfiltered insights into Kenya’s political landscape. Simiyu argued that the government operates without transparency, stating, “If the government does anything, they don’t need to tell the mwananchi.” He emphasized that Kenya’s core issue is a lack of accountability, where the cause of problems cannot be the solution. Highlighting Babu Owino’s knack for addressing market needs, Simiyu noted public sentiment from a poll crowning Jimi Wanjigi as the presidential aspirant who best understands Kenya’s real issues, surpassing Kalonzo, Gachagua, and Mating’i. Simiyu criticized the affordable housing project, which uses public land and taxes to build homes sold back to citizens, calling it unsustainable for slum dwellers due to high maintenance costs like lifts. He praised the president for inadvertently awakening political consciousness, making Kenyans aware of politics’ direct impact. However, he lamented the African mentality of rejecting integrity, citing figures like PLO Lumumba and how Kenyans often dismiss honest leaders as “boring” while voting for corrupt ones. Simiyu endorsed Patrick Musili for Nairobi governor based on his manifesto and shared a bold anecdote about confronting inefficiency at Pension Towers. He also warned about environmental destabilization from boreholes and high-rise buildings near Wilson Airport. For raw, unfiltered truths, watch the full episode on Obinna TV Extra YouTube

Babu Owino’s Heartfelt Insights on Love and Marriage

Embakasi East MP Babu Owino graced Obinna Show Live with Oga Obinna, sharing profound insights on love, marriage, and life. Known for his bold political voice, Babu offered a refreshing take on building strong relationships, emphasizing intentionality and faith. His wisdom, drawn from 15 years of marriage to Fridah Muthoni, resonated with fans, making this episode a viral hit. The Essence of a Strong Marriage Babu Owino highlighted that marriage thrives on friendship, courting, and communication, forming a “marital triangle.” He stressed the importance of a vertical relationship with God and a horizontal bond between partners. “A family that prays together stays together,” he said, advocating for the six P’s: prayers, provision, protection, presence, purpose, and play. These principles, he noted, ensure happiness and productivity in marriage. Navigating Challenges and Generational Curses Addressing life’s “poisons” like hurt, anger, and unforgiveness, Babu Owino linked poor upbringing to generational curses, which only prayers can break. He advised fostering harmony with in-laws and resolving conflicts immediately by listening and discussing issues calmly. “Don’t argue—ask ‘how’ or ‘help me understand,’” he urged, emphasizing understanding over confrontation. Roles and Respect in Marriage Babu Owino outlined clear priorities: men should respect, understand, and lead their families, while women should be homemakers, first teachers, and supportive partners. He encouraged appreciating women’s communication needs—speaking 10,000–26,000 words daily—and maintaining visual attraction, as “men are visual creatures.” What resonated with you from Babu Owino’s Obinna Show Live insights?
