WATCH: Mistreated Kenyan Women in Saudi Arabia Cry for Help to Return Home
A video clip of a group of Kenyan women working in Saudi Arabia crying for help to return home has been shared on social media.
The 1 minutes, 38-second video recording shows a group of five women sitting on the floor in a room with their faces covered with veils.
One of the ladies is heard saying that their colleague, who is lying on the floor, recently underwent surgery and she is bleeding but their employer had refused to take her to the hospital. She adds that they were locked in the room and denied food.
I received this Video Via WhatsApp & all I can say is that Kenyans are really suffering in the Middle East. These are Kenyans in Saudi Arabia. They haven't eaten in days & are being treated harshly. Also Kenyans in Lebanon are facing these Horrors. They want to come back Home. pic.twitter.com/rfb55s5Z9l

She pleads with Kenyans and anyone who comes across the video clip to come to their rescue, noting that they have been assaulted, abused and mistreated, in addition to having their salaries withheld.
Following an upsurge of cases of Kenyans being raped, assaulted and tortured, the government banned its citizens from seeking domestic work in the Middle East but the ban was lifted in 2017 after Kenya signed a bilateral agreement with Saudi Arabia.

I hope the son of Jomo is taking note of this.
Where is Uhuru? This situation call for presidential attention. BBI is not useful.
The problem is their religion. It doesn’t teach love.
The holy Quran is mainly based about love in many different forms and ways. There are also Hadithi teaching which are real live stories of the last Messager -Mohammed (Pbuh) with many other exemplary. Hence with also this tell you that Arabs by nature are head-stroke people. Another example is civilization stated with they Ancestors but nowadays they have to import it back. So is the religion, has been said that Islamic will be saved and upholded further by other non-Arabs in years to come.
@ Kale, Iam not religious,but I know quite alot about what the two big religions,Christianity,and Islam are about.Both religions contain violence ,and love.But if I had to pick one that is less violent, I would go for christianity.Rarely do you ever hear someone bowing a house,or abus full of innocent people in the name of Jesus.Therefore Iwonder if these Arabs who mistreat these Kenyan women do it in the name of Allah.That would be terrible.And I would urge our Kenyan sisters to seek employment in Christian countries,or in other countries that have less violent religion like Japan...
How can i help these ladies please Asap
