Kakamega Senator Cleophas Malala supporters flocked the roads pushing for the Senator release. The supporters blocked a section of roads in Mumias Town demanding for immediate release.

The supporters on Tuesday morning flamed bonfires on the roads.

Malala was arrested on Monday in Nairobi and later driven to Mumias to face charges of violating COVID-19 pandemic rules.

This was after he was captured addressing a crowd and distributing sanitisers in the town on Sunday.

Senator Malala alongside his counterparts Bomet’s Chris Langat and Samburu’s Steve Lelegwe were arrested and driven to their respective counties for grilling.
