The game is changing and the tables are turning. Violence against men is slowly fading away while women now are the major victims of violence from all corners of the country.
Initially, we had men being battered by their wives especially from central Kenya. But it appears the male gender has sworn to not be violated ever again by their female counterparts.
These are the days you sit down to watch prime time news and you can hardly complete watching an entire bulletin for the news being broadcast are so scaring.
Women with wounds from wife battery are the news makers. Hardly a week after a man from Machakos chopped off her wife’s hands for not bearing him children, two more women are in Nyahururu hospital nursing serious injuries from their husbands.
All we have become is a warring nation beginning from the basic unit of the society which is the family. Humanity no longer exists in some people and people do things like there is no law in this country.
If we speak of love among married couples, it would sound like a fairy tale since love is a rare ordeal in marriage. The virus of gender violence is spreading fast like a dry bush on fire.
Incident after incident, and when you look at the issues generating this violence, you simply can’t understand why people have to be so inhuman while there are better ways to resolve such conflicts.
It is high time Kenyans know that Kenya has rules and the law in return should take it part and ensure that those who break it face the law.
