Comedian-cum-activist Eric Omondi has likened Kenya's current political and economic turmoil to a mother in labor pains, asserting that the intense suffering is a clear sign of a "New Birth, a New Beginning to a New Kenya."
In a powerful and poignant message shared across his Instagram page, Omondi’s striking analogy comes amidst a simmering national discontent, amplified by the recent tragic death of blogger Albert Ojwang allegedly in police custody.
Omondi, known for his audacious stunts and outspoken activism, minced no words in his latest call for change, prophesying that the general mood in the country will soon change.
“Hear me…There will be A NEW KENYA. Not because of Anything or Anyone but because ITS TIME!!!" he declared.
"Everything that Kenya is through can be likened to a Mother in Labor…The Pain that we are experiencing is a clear Sign of a NEW BIRTH a NEW BEGINNING, a NEW KENYA,” Omondi added.
His message resonated deeply with many Kenyans who feel the weight of economic hardship and a perceived lack of accountability from leadership.
The activist firmly believes that the era of deep-seated societal ills is drawing to a close, asking Kenyans of goodwill to buckle up and be steady for change.
"Their time is Over, the Generation of CORRUPTION, TRIBALISM, GREED, ANARCHY, NEPOTISM, and BRUTALITY will be no more in a few. GOD WITH US. MALIZENI MUENDE!!!" he passionately urged, signaling a definitive end to what he views as entrenched systemic failures.

This bold declaration taps into a growing sentiment among the populace, particularly the youth, who are increasingly vocal about demanding better governance and an end to corruption that has plagued the nation for decades.
Omondi's heightened activism is not new. Over the past few years, he has transformed from a purely comedic figure into a prominent voice for social justice, often leading protests against the high cost of living, unemployment, and government policies.
His "Sisi Kwa Sisi" initiative has become a significant platform for community support, aiding vulnerable individuals and families across the country.
It is through this same "Sisi Kwa Sisi" initiative that Eric Omondi has actively rallied support for the family of the late Albert Ojwang.
Ojwang, a 31-year-old teacher and blogger, was arrested in Homa Bay and later allegedly died in police custody at Nairobi Central Police Station.
Initial police claims of suicide were contradicted by a subsequent autopsy report, which indicated that Ojwang suffered fatal head injuries, neck compression, and multiple soft tissue injuries consistent with assault.
This horrific incident has ignited widespread protests and reignited public outcry against police brutality and impunity, further fueling the general discontent mood.
