Commercial sex workers in Mombasa have warned their customers to prepare for higher “service” charges should the Government lift the intercounty travel restrictions.

This comes after Mombasa County approved the reopening of eateries, hotels and guest houses.

Millicent Auma, a commercial sex worker in Bombolulu, told K24 Digital that the last three months “have been the toughest in my career, which has spanned many years”.

“After the shutting of nightclubs and entertainment joints in Mombasa by both the national and county governments, the number of my clients reduced significantly!” she said.

“My colleagues and I have been unable to feed our families,” added Auma.

“We are now grateful to the County Government for reopening eateries and tourism sites as that would make it easy for us to meet our clients.”

Auma and her colleagues, however, warn their clients to prepare to pay hefty costs as they (sex workers) would be forced to pay extra for safety equipment.

“They should be ready to pay higher prices than what we used to charge before the outbreak of COVID-19. We’ll now be forced to buy sanitizers and face masks before getting intimate with any customer. Given we are in business, we’ll be forced to transfer that extra cost to the clients,” said Auma

Mary Karen, another sex worker in Mombasa, said they — as an association of sex workers in Mombasa — have already met and agreed on minimum price that they’ d charge their clients.

“Before coronavirus crisis, the only extra cost we would incur was on condoms. Now, face masks, sanitizers and other hygiene equipment have been added to our expenses list. We’ve agreed that the minimum charge will be Ksh800 and the maximum cost a sex worker — in our association — can charge her client will be Ksh1, 200 per session ,” said Karen.

The sex worker says the 9m-4am curfew has negatively affected their “business”, forcing them to lower their base charge from Ksh1, 000 to even Ksh200.

“Business has gone down! Nowadays, one can even go home with only Ksh200, and that comes from our regular clients, whom we can only get intimate with in their vehicles, given brothels and lodgings are not operational,” she said.

The Mombasa County Government Emergency Response Committee on COVID-19 last week Okayed the opening of eateries in accordance with the Ministry of Health directive.

The announcement was made by Mombasa County Commissioner Gilbert Kitiyo.

A woman has moved to court in an attempt to stop the burial of late Matungu Member of Parliament Justus Murunga.

Agnes Wangui, through her lawyer Dunstan Omari, claims Murunga fathered her two children, who she wants allowed to participate in the late MP’s burial arrangements

Expressing her fears that the two will be denied a chance to bury their “father”, Agnes wants the court to issue orders barring Murunga’s two widows Christabel and Grace and Lee Funeral Home from conducting the burial.

The woman also wants the court to order DNA tests to ascertain the children’s paternity.

She wants the remains of the deceased to continue being preserved at Lee Funeral Home until DNA samples have been collected in the presence of licensed pathologists appointed by both parties.

“I have known Murunga for seven years. Our first encounter was in 2013 when he was a supervisor at Embakasi ranching, while I was a businesswoman engaged in vendition of beverages and snacks within Sewerage area, Ruai,” she says.

In her court documents, she claims that they began dating thereafter and were blessed with their first child with Murunga renting a house for her in Ruai, Nairobi.

She says their romantic relationship hit the rocks after Murunga was elected Matungu MP in 2017.

The MP passed away on Saturday after developing breathing complications at his home in Kakamega County.

His family has dismissed claims that he succumbed to Covid-19.

Nairobi woman has lost mobility a day after failing to turn up at the home of her Kitui lover despite having being sent money for her transport. Irene Gicheru (25) a resident of Mwiki, Kasarani woke up on Saturday but her legs were weak, and could not stand nor move.

On carrying out further medical inquiries, the food she had eaten the previous day, Irene revealed that she ate at a hotel after Elephas Muli, a man she met online sent her money for transport to his place in Mwingi, Kitui county.
She said the two had plans to spent the weekend together but she failed to go because she had never met him before and was afraid.

Efforts by her friends to reach Mr. Muli on phone bored no fruits since his number is switched off. The doctors, however, referred her to Nairobi hospital for a further, specialized check-up and treatment
