In a bid to keep the people of Mvita in Mombasa County from Covid-19, the local MP Abdulswamad Shariff Nassir installed public sanitation booths across the constituency.

Mvita Constituency is one of the hardest-hit regions by Covid-19 in the country.

The booths, numbering about 50, were installed in strategic public areas near bus stops, estate entrances and near the entrance to the main Island which falls under Mvita Constituency.
