What was unusual, however, was that the person who knocked, waited to be welcomed and actually got in. It was August 9, 2017, at around 3pm, and Bena Buluma, or Mama Victor as she is commonly known, was at home when three boys came in. But when the three boys knocked, waited for me to welcome them and actually got in, I knew something serious was coming,” Buluma said. "I didn’t understand what they meant when they said my sons had been felled by the police,’’ Mama Victor remembers. Buluma joined mothers and widows whose sons and husbands were either killed or injured by police in Nairobi slums to protest against police brutality.
