3years ago, today, I was brutally raped along Kiambu Rd & right opposite my daughter's school. Since, I have done the conscious decision to heal that I didn't remember it at all until now. And I didn't breakdown. I'm a happy, content, healing girl. Truly the woman of my dreams.

I'm so proud of Elsa Majimbo. Standing up to a powerful bully is not easy, the girl was shaking but she did it anyway. It follows then, that I'll always be on her side. A 22 year old who dared to take on a very powerful mean girl is to be protected at all costs.

Men and sometimes women are so obsessed with teaching wayward, unchaste women a lesson, that their first reaction to femicide is 'Yeah, that will show them. Those evil women without morals.' It speaks to a deep hatred, a disregard for the bodies they seem less than.

It's almost one year to the day I was raped and left for death. I survived the panic attacks, anxiety, suicide ideation, pain, hatred, constant anger, defeat, weakness and tears. The night terrors, forcing myself to eat and take PEP. But I did it and today I thrive

Na by the way hamtaendelea kusumbua @Honeyfarsafi huku. Leave the girl alone. Follow the simple instructions to reach out to her via WhatsApp with necessary documents, she'll get back. And direct your pent up anger to your government for all systemic failures.

Despite lower victimization rates, older populations face distinct vulnerabilities stemming from various levels and layers of discrimination. The often overlooked violence against older, vulnerable women definitely deserves more attention. #TotalShutDownKE #EndFemicide

@catherine_amayi Yes he did and everyone had the audacity to be shocked at my reaction rather than being repulsed by his behaviour. Nakwambia ni vile watu na hawkers walikua wamejaa kila mahali it would have ended with the 2 of us at Central.

You lot are evil. I hope to make enough money to get the tools and resources necessary to protect queer and trans children plus women from their parents. You hate your children so much your first thought is to harm them? From sexism, misogyny, bigotry, queerphobia (3.1)
