Jabbi was the SLPP candidate for a seat in the Sierra Leone House of Parliament for Constituency 8 in Kailahun District, a reliable SLPP stronghold. He won the election in an overwhelming landslide with 86.10%, defeating his closest rival Fayia Kellie of the All People's Congress (APC) who took 10.58%[4].

In 2011, Bu-Buakei Jabbi took the SLPP, a party he is a member, to the Supreme Court of Sierra Leone in an internal dispute between him and the party.[3] The dispute has since been settled.

Jabbi is a Muslim and a native of Kailahun District in Eastern Sierra Leone. He is a member of the Mandingo ethnic group.
