The artist was heavily criticised after the video went viral, sparking outrage on social media in 2016.

"[It] cannot be accepted in any shape, form or manner. It is a blatant violation of their human rights," Ms Kariuki said.

On Monday, Olomidé thanked the government for "allowing me to be back again" during a press conference.
