Man Charged For Telling Migori Woman Rep Fatuma To Get Married As She’s Getting Old
A man has been charged with cyber harassment after sending a message to Migori Woman Representative Fatuma Zainabu Mohammed, telling her to get married because she was “getting old.”
Vincent Otieno Okwanyo appeared before Milimani Magistrate BenMark Ekhubi, where he pleaded not guilty to the charges. The prosecution alleges that Otieno sent an insulting and offensive SMS to the MP, suggesting that she should find a man to marry her due to her age.
