The Lady in Question

On Monday, Eunice Wangari Wakimbi (the victim), told a magistrate’s court that she met the perpetrator, Moses Gatama Njoroge, for a date in Nairobi on September 13, 2020.

There after, they went to his office for an alcoholic drink and at around 7.30 pm when she wanted to leave, Njoroge made advance on her, which she turned down.

Her refusal to spend the night with the perpetrator is what caused the fight, that resulted to her being pushed off the 12th floor of the building through the window, landing on the 9th floor balcony.

Reactions from KOT

Ciku Muiruri

“@ShaffieWeru The most ridiculous thing about this nonsense is that your beef with women is that they are seemingly "too available" but if they say no to sex (hence not available) you can toss them out of a building. Kindly grow up. This is irresponsible. And let me add that being "too available" or "not available at all" is also HER fucking choice and not a licence for rape or violence”

“So a guy pushes you from the 12th Floor of a building for refusing his advances, because you were "too loose".

I can't even engage with this logic. Women are loose for having sex, and loose for refusing it. We can't win”
