The petition highlights four Key issues that should be addressed by stakeholders in different sectors – the office of the Governor, DCI, and the Ministry of Public Service, Gender, and Affirmative Action.
This petition therefore demands:
- The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) investigates the accused and arrests the perpetrator(s)
- The Nairobi County Government set up safe houses and counselling centres for men experiencing GBV.
- The Ministry of Public Service, Gender and Affirmative Action to instill policies and programs for men experiencing GBV.
- The Ministry of Public Service, Gender and Affirmative Action create support groups that have regular physical meetings and are led by a professional facilitator (nurse, social worker, or psychologist) for men experiencing GBV to have a safe haven to share their stories/experiences and begin their journey to healing.
During a past interview with Dennis Milimo, the Kiss 100 radio host mentioned that a lot of men are going through a hard time but there is no one to speak on their behalf.
At particular time, we was embroiled in a public fallout with one of hos baby mamas.
“The reason why I am seated here is because I am a victim of gender based violence. I spoke about it last week and nobody has done anything about it because boy child is on his own. Nobody cares about boy child,”
Adding that;
"It’s not a good thing because the children are involved. A lot of people are telling me to leave the children out of it. But she was abusive to the children and I have evidence for all that. Telling me not to talk about is not giving them closure. I am being insulted and I am the victim,".
