Kenya: Thousands join protests against femicide in Kenya after rise in killings | Oneindia

Kenya has witnessed widespread protests condemning femicide following a surge in killings this month.

With reports of at least a dozen femicide cases since the beginning of the year, public outcry, discussions, and demonstrations have erupted throughout the nation, notably in Nairobi, Kisumu, and Mombasa.

In major cities on Saturday, thousands of women took to the streets, brandishing placards with powerful messages like #StopKillingUs, #EndFemicideKe, and #WeJustWantToLive, demanding an end to femicide.

The signs also bore the names of women who fell victim to recent violence, urging people to "Say Their Names" or emphasising "She Was Someone." The digital realm echoed these sentiments with tens of thousands of online posts rallying against the disturbing trend of violent killings.
