Try this

using System.Net.Http;

protected async override void OnNavigatedTo(NavigationEventArgs e)
{
    var data = new List<KeyValuePair<string, string>>
    {
        new KeyValuePair<string, string>("key_1", "value_1"),
        new KeyValuePair<string, string>("key_2", "value_1")
    };

    await PostKeyValueData(data);
}

private async Task PostKeyValueData(List<KeyValuePair<string, string>> values)
{
    var httpClient = new HttpClient();
    var response = await httpClient.PostAsync("http://50.16.234.220/helloapp/api/public/", new FormUrlEncodedContent(values));
    var responseString = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
}
