Comedian Eric Omondi has been arrested again while leading Demos in Nairobi CBD.

Omondi who has been taken to Nairobi Central Police Station was protesting against the high cost of living.

The funnyman turned activist was protesting in CBD hours after Azimio la Umoja leader Raila Odinga called off nationwide protests.

Omondi who had a rope around his neck was threatening to jump to his death from a raised podium on which he was standing on.

“Mimi leo sitoki hapa, I will hang myself here because they have refused to listen to the voices of Kenyans,” Omobndo said while singing Juliani’s song Utawala.

This is the fourth arrest over a period of two months preceded by three previous arrests in relation to the cost of living protests.

On March 29, Omondi was again arrested while pulling a ‘mkokoteni’ (hand cart) which he claimed had thousands of CVs of youths looking for jobs.

He was arrested along Uhuru Highway on his way to deliver the documents to State House, a restricted area and the president’s official residence.

“Nasikia vizuri sana niko free (I feel so nice I’m free)” he said upon walking out of the Central Police Station.

The comedian-turned-activist was first arrested on February 21 on Parliament Way while leading protests against the rising cost of living.

He was nabbed alongside 17 others and later charged in court with unlawful assembly. The case will be heard in May.

Omondi was on March 1 arrested again while distributing maize flour to his supporters at City Stadium in Nairobi.

He was released unconditionally on March 6.
