“We have released 5 New Mothers who had been detained at Pumwani Maternity. Mr. President before you pay 50 CAS’s billions of shillings, before the government buys brand new cars for the Executive, PLEASE make an order for all mothers detained at Pumwani and across the country to be released. Ulisema Serikali ni ya Mama mboga na Boda Boda. Watu wa boda boda wako Jela na mama mboga amefungiwa Pumwani,” Omondi captioned the video.
