Read Time:1 Minute, 23 Second
In an impassioned speech on the Senate floor today, Nakuru Senator Tabitha Karanja Keroche expressed deep concern over the rising cases of abductions and femicide in Kenya.
She condemned the recent surge in such incidents, especially the targeting of young women, many of whom are university students with promising futures.
Senator Karanja conveyed heartfelt condolences to families mourning the loss of their children, emphasizing the pain parents endure when their loved ones are abducted or murdered. “Losing a young person with a bright future, particularly a university student, is an unimaginable tragedy,” she stated, her voice laden with empathy.
The senator criticized the current state of security in the country, calling on the government to take stronger action to protect its citizens.
“Why are we, as a country, helplessly watching as such heinous crimes continue? If there are issues within the security system, we need to address them and remove any ineffective personnel,” she urged.
She pointed out that mothers, especially, feel the anguish deeply, as many of the victims are young women striving for success in a society that often presents significant challenges for women.
She warned that if the situation continues, women leaders may need to take unprecedented action to advocate for the safety of young women in Kenya.
Concluding her address, Senator Karanja called for urgent measures to prevent such tragedies. She stressed that the pain of losing a child or searching for justice is a burden no parent should have to bear, advocating for prompt reforms in the country’s security framework. “As senators, we must ensure that our children are safe and that justice is accessible to all Kenyans,” she asserted.
