Angry women of King’eero village in Kabere constituency, Kenya, on
Thursday, raided the home of a chang’aa seller and beat up four men. The
group of women numbering about 50 rained slaps, kicks and blows on the
drunk men during the early morning raid.
Members of Destiny of King’eero Women’s Group, formed
to monitor drinking joints in King’eero township, found the four men
drinking at the home of a suspected chang’aa seller. The men fled to a
nearby maize plantation following the ambush at the home of 50-year old
Franco Okori.(pictured being questioned by the women)
“They said we were only there to sire children, give them food and wash
their clothes, not control their happiness,” said member Martha Wairimu.
“Many young men have been affected as they normally flock the home on
early mornings. They do notbring anything home but still ask for food.”
