Updated Tue, May 10th 2016 at 08:00 GMT +3Burning SONU officesUniversity of Nairobi student Mike Jacobs has been arrested over burning of SONU offices last month in election riots and he is to face arson and malicious damage to property charges. The students went ahead to burn SONU offices as they protest over election of Babu Owino as chairman. Mike Jacobs was a contender for the position of SONU chairman but lost to Babu Owino who has already been sworn in. Most students were puzzled by Babu Owino's win because Mike Jacobs was leading in all campuses by midnight. In the recent past University of Nairobi students have expressed concern over Babu's leadership style linking him to hooliganism after a video of him harassing his closest rival Mike Jacobs surfaced.
