Preliminary reports show she sustained severe knife wounds to her neck and forehead.
My heart is bleeding๐ฅนwhen will violence against women and girls end?
One year away was enough to build my career and now Iโm coming back with a masterโs degree. The County Government should now tell us ;where is the Gender Policy, why hasnโt it been passed after all this time, and where did the money allocated for it go?
Two years of pushing for Uasin Gishuโs Gender Policy money spent, consultations held, yet still nothing. Meanwhile, femicide, rape, and threats against gender justice activists continue. What kind of government is this? How are we supposed to live safely? #GenderJuste#endviolen
Eldoret is bleeding.
Four women have reportedly died in separate incidents in Eldoret/Uasin Gishu this week, with police investigating several of the deaths as possible murders.
How many more women must die before we treat femicide and violence against women as the emergency??
If I could ever talk of the threats I receive as a human rights defender! Where am I safe?๐ฅน ,Iโll only stop when violence against women and girls stops. Otherwise, I will speak out! I will unveil the hidden agenda..I am in this forever
Speak against violence against women in Kenya, and the threats can go beyond the screen.
Women activists face intimidation, threats of physical assault and attempts to silence them simply for demanding action!
It is scary! Where is that safety to speak?
#EndviolenceAWAG
Politicians cannot publicly condemn GBV while privately protecting people accused of abusing women. We will continue demanding answers!! I will speak it out,culture has nothing on me
