Amidst the nationwide outcry against femicide in Kenya, popular comedienne Mammito Eunice launched a powerful broadside at the country’s politicians, accusing them of empty promises and indifference towards women’s safety.

Speaking to a local news outlet, Mammito expressed her outrage over the stark contrast between politicians’ fervent pursuit of votes and their lack of action in addressing critical issues like femicide.

“When they want our votes, they crawl at our feet, even offering us mandazi [doughnuts]. But when we demand change, they disappear. We don’t want handouts, we want leaders who implement change that protects our community,” she declared.

Mammito’s passionate words resonated with many Kenyans, particularly those participating in the ongoing protests against femicide. Thousands have taken to the streets, united in their grief and anger over the recent surge in violent killings of women. Protesters, armed with placards and unwavering voices, demanded swift action from security agencies and a commitment to safeguarding women’s lives.

The comedienne’s call resonates deeply with the frustration and disillusionment gripping the nation. Citizens yearn for leaders who go beyond lip service and actively implement policies that prioritize the safety and well-being of all, particularly women who face ongoing threats and vulnerabilities.

Mammito’s bold statement serves as a reminder that empty promises and political maneuvering hold no value in the face of human lives lost. It urges citizens to demand more from their elected officials and empower themselves to hold them accountable for their actions.

The fight against femicide in Kenya requires collective action and unwavering commitment. Voices like Mammito Eunice’s are crucial in amplifying the collective demand for change and ensuring that the cries for justice and protection are heard loud and clear.
