Omondi, who left Kenya in 2016, claimed to be involved in a conflict with the son of a former employer who is allegedly harassing him with the police due to his thriving business in Dar es salaam Tanzania.
He is now pleaded with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Dr.Alfred Mutua to intervene in his situation.
He claimed that the legal battles had led to the loss of income for his family, as his passport, which contained his work permit, was confiscated.
"They are ensuring I can't raise legal fees, I can't get a lawyer, afford a house, or feed myself," he said in a recent interview.
The viral clips about Omondi captioned the attention of Foreign Affairs Cabinet Secretary Alfred Mutua. He however vowed to get to the bottom of the saga surrounding Fredrick.
