Foolish men laughing at even more foolish comments
Where can we support these women directly ? I want to send help
Kenyan men are very violent towards women. From how I see it..they feel the need to bully a woman to falsely align that with being a man. Disgusting to the core. I'm not Kenyan but I dated one and I can tell you he was worse than the devil. I thought it's one off but I have met and spoken to many other women who had relationships with Kenyan men who suffered so much violence. Seeing how this woman was attacked makes me want to avenge her attack with extreme steps . .this is what they bring out in you….the worse.
A man who fights a woman is a coward.
its so shocking to see that man are claiming superior to those women who bringing children into this world and takes care of them to grow up to trash them . women needs to teach their boy children to treat their wives with respect.

BELOVED PLEASE UPDATE US ON THIS ISSUE. ESPECIALLY LOVE ONES PLEASE HELP THIS LADY WHO IS TRYING TO DO GOOD COMMUNITY WORK.
BELOVED A PERSON WHO HAS NO SELF RESPECT CAN NEVER RESPECT ANYONE ELSE.
THIS MAN WAS A BRUTE AND THIS IS THE REASON WHY THE WOMAN LEFT HIM IN THE FIRST PLACE. HENCE HER STATEMENT THAT SHE TOLD HIM SHE KNEW HE WOULD NOT LOOK AFTER THE CHILDREN. EDUCATION IS NEEDED BUT WOMEN ALSO HAS TO HAVE PROTECTION FROM THE WIDER COMMUNITY. BUT WITH MEN WHO BELIEVE IN ABUSING WOMEN TO THE POINT THEY USE THEIR NASTY MOUTH TO BRAG ABOUT IT, THIS WILL BE DIFFICULT. THERE IS A TIME FOR COMMUNITY ACTION. THE FACT HE KILLED A CHILD AND THE PEOPLE DID NOT ARM THEMSELVES AND GO TO LOOK FOR HIM THATS A SAD COMMUNITY.
BELOVED FILMMAKERS THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THIS MATTER TO OUR ATTENTION. YOUR WORK IS NOT IN VAIN. AND THAT WOMAN HAS LIVED FOR A REASON SO THAT SHE IS HERE TO TELL HER STORY AND TO PROTECT HER REMAINING CHILDREN.
BELOVED THIS IS THE REASON THE WORLD CAN NEVER BE A BETTER PLACE. IMAGINE THIS ANIMAL WENT TO THE HOUSE OF THE MOTHER OF HIS CHILDREN. BUTCHERED HER AND ONE OF HER INFANT CHILDREN..AND HIS FAMILY WANTED TO PROTECT HIM AND HAD ALIENATED THE SIBBLING WHO HAD THE GOOD SENCE TO COOPERATE WITH THE POLICE. THATS ABSURD. THIS IS THE REASON WHY HE MAN COMMITTED MURDER WITH SUCH EASE AND HAD THE INTENTION TO ESCAPE ANY PUNISHMENT, HIS FAMILY HAS BEEN UPHOLDING HIS WRONG DOINGS. I WONDER HOW MANY OTHER PEOPLE HE ABUSED AND MURDERED. THIS IS THE SAME WAY FAMALIES PROTECT CHILD PREDATORS AND THOSE WHO PREY ON CHILDREN. SHAME ON THEM. I HOPE THE WIDER COMMUNITY SUPPORTS THE BROTHER AND ALSO THE WOMAN AND THE CHILD TO BUILD THEIR LIFE.

These are the same people that come to America and disrespect Black Americans for white acceptance. Smh
Im an African woman. I dont need to be beaten to respect my husband. No African woman wants to be beaten. Its not cultural or traditional to hit your wife. In fact, its taboo. Long ago a man would be heavily fined for hitting his wife because she is considered a visitor or stranger or guest in your family because she is not of your blood so you ought to treat her very well, since also she is there to further the family name by bearing children who will carry the family name. It is NOT a rite of passage to hit your wife.
I’m 25 now but I still remember how my dad was violent to my mum over 2 decades ago. I thank God my mom moved out, she brought us up as a single mom. Up to this day there’s no punch bag for him but anytime we visit he might be as emotionally abusive as you can never imagine, at times I wonder if he really knows what he’s doing… but to shield myself, always blame it on alcohol.
@11:31 Tom Odula asks, "Is violence against women ever justified?"
I know that there were quite a few in the group who laughed at the answers being given by others. I expected that.
What made more of an impact to me was just how many weren't laughing, of which more than a handful had concern living in their expressions. These men, the ones not laughing, are the reason why we fight for change. They are the reason for our hope. Thank you.
This is closer to home than I want to remember. I pray for changes to keep these women and children safe. They deserve that. ❤
Kenya needs to do better.
the problem is when things become over saturated. a huge reason why gender based violence is become worse is because of western influence. in other countries the way American and European women act is horrifying to even women of other countries. to put in perspective the exact opposite problem is happening in the west where a woman can beat and rape a man with little to no consequence and the man is still seen as weak. you must balance the respect not simply prioritize one side.
Gender violence is soo normalised. And the way the woman shows up the next day smiling and acting like the man didn't almost break bones usiku. Please guys talk, stay away, anytime you have suspect something noma.lets take care of ourselves.
Pain has no boundaries, pain cause by loved ones goes deep. Some mothers has done worse emotional damage to their own kids. We should talk about this.
God bless you, Peter. The world needs more of you.
Thank you Peter. You did the right thing. May God bless you abundantly!
The 1st man talking he disgusts me….am so sorry to the woman married to you useless panks!!
watu hawana hutu kabsa
Unfortunately we experienced these n the trauma is too much. We can't sustain relationships
Women need to respect their husbands but husbands should never beat the wife How can you respect a man that beats a weaker person
Recently av noticed men in my home country kenya can't take no for an answer or in better words they don't react well to rejection……kitambo things were different but i don't know what's wrong with our men
😢
What a sad+ terrible thing to happen, what is wrong with some people. He shall pay a heavy price for a moments loss of his god given conscious. What a terrible memory for the lady+ her baby son to bare. May god give them strength in healing+ that they will always be surrounded by people that will love+ respect them+the fact these men are laughing about disrespect the nature of woman that in all due respect gave them life. May god give people strength of mind+ consciousness to respect each other with love+ affection amen+ have a good day, love+ shine on
This breaks my heart so much, Yet when Kenyans went to protest against the femicide cases they were chased away by the police. What kind of country are we living in?
