Woman Arrested With Her Baby While Roasting Maize Freed From Quarantine

A baby reported to be one-month-old who had been quarantined in Busia has been freed together with the mother.

Social media went wild with condemnation of the decision by authorities in Nambale subcounty to lock up Caroline Akumu with her infant in a classroom with no bedding and no food at Kisoko Girls High School.

The woman is said to have been arrested while roasting maize along the road in Nambale town in the afternoon before she was whisked away to the quarantine centre.

 Kisoko Girls High School where she was taken is among institutions designated as quarantine centres in Busia county.

It took the intervention of Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko, Nominated Senator Millicent Omanga, local leaders and Fida to secure freedom for Akumu and her baby.

Police and the county government were heavily criticised for allowing the two to be quarantined in pathetic conditions.

The county government, however, later clarified that it was responsible for her detention.
