One on one with MUMBUA KIEMA one of the greatest midwives in Makueni County. In her career spanning 60 years she has delivered over 10000 babies. The art or science was given to her by the spirits. By just holding the tummy of a pregnant lady she can tell with 100 percent accuracy when the baby was conceived, the sex of the baby and when the baby will be delivered. She can also tell if a woman is married whether the baby belongs to the hubby( This is her secret between her and the woman delivering). She can also cleanse women who have had miscarriages so that they deliver these she has done to thousands. Some times she is called in hospital maternity wards to assist which she has graciously accepted. With no medical training she passed a midwifery exam when it was translated to her - she is truly gifted. Welcome and let us celebrate these God given gift.
