I have a theory about women who pay their own dowry and such like. They are doing it for the optics. They want to be seen to have the glam engagement, the fancy to do trad wedding and all that, just for optics and photo ops, while clearly the dude isn't interested.

This lady (Hon. Wanjiku Muhia) voted YES for the Housing Levy, SHA, Draconian University Funding and the 2024 Finance Bill; attacked GenZs on the floor of parliament as they were being k!lled asking where they wanted Kasongo to get money from if they protested against the Finance Bill.
Today, she is a Gitungati. One of the very many reasons as to why we continue saying that if Murima is not careful, we are going to have another round of garbage in parliament. Or worse off...
@aleppo_ke@DrKanyuira Well, i missed pointing out the areas i've noticed over the years. Westlands, Limuru road, kiambu road, Peponi road. I thought it would also trickle down to the rest of the areas in the city.
😭💔 My heart is shattered into a million pieces as I share this devastating story. Yesterday evening at 6:00pm, a precious little baby girl, just 9 years old, was walking home from school in Bagamoyo, Nairutia. She was so close to safety, just steps away from her front door, when a monster grabbed her violently and dragged her into the dark forest.
He defiled her in the most brutal way imaginable. Then, with no mercy in his soul, he hit her on the head with a stone, strangled her, and left her there to die alone among the trees. He thought she was gone. This innocent child endured unimaginable pain, shock, and terror... her tiny body collapsed from the horror of it all.
But our brave little warrior fought to survive. God was watching over her. She was found and rushed to the hospital where she is now receiving emergency treatment. The strength of this 9-year-old girl in the face of such evil is beyond words, yet my soul cries thinking of the trauma she will carry. No child should ever know such suffering.
The man responsible is still out there. He is not known in the community, but after committing this unspeakable act, he had the audacity to walk into a nearby home in the same forest area and borrow a glass of water. CCTV cameras in that compound captured him clearly. The brave girl positively identified him from the image.
If you know this man, if you recognize his face, if you have any information about his whereabouts — please, I beg you, inbox me or report immediately to the nearest police station. He is dangerous. His intentions at that home were likely evil too. He must be caught before he hurts another innocent soul.
If you see him...
WAIIIIII!!! 😭
The pain in our community is heavy today. Let us stand together for this beautiful, brave little girl. Let us demand justice that matches the depth of this cruelty. Pray for her healing, for her family’s strength, and for swift action against this devil walking among us.
Share this. Report anything you know. Together, we can bring this monster to justice and protect our children.
