“They came with gifts to honour my online classes for our KCSE candidates. Their love and kindness deeply touched my heart. Thank you, Mr. Mutegi and your wonderful family, for your generous spirit and support. God bless you abundantly.”

Championing Education Through Online Coaching
Babu Owino, known for his vibrant personality and academic background, has been conducting free online revision sessions for Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) candidates since 2020.
His lessons, which cover key subjects such as Mathematics, Chemistry, and Physics, are streamed live across his social media platforms, including Facebook and YouTube, where they have garnered thousands of views and positive engagement.
The initiative has earned him widespread praise for making education accessible to learners, especially those who cannot afford private tutoring.
Accessing Babu Owino’s Online Lessons
Students can access Babu Owino’s revision classes through his verified Facebook page and YouTube channel, where both live and recorded sessions are available for free. The content has been particularly useful to KCSE candidates seeking last-minute revision support and conceptual clarity.
Babu’s post has attracted an outpouring of appreciation from Kenyans who commended both his dedication to education and the family’s gesture of gratitude. Many described the act as a reflection of how impactful his lessons have been to students across the country.
As the 2025 KCSE examinations continue, Babu Owino’s initiative stands out as an example of how leaders can leverage digital platforms to empower the next generation.
