Let us step up efforts to win battle against violence targeting women
The Kenya National Bureau of Statistics alarmingly reports that 45 percent of women aged 15–49 have experienced physical violence, and 14 percent have experienced sexual violence at least once in their lives.
Reports on gender-based violence by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime show the year started on a gloomy note. Also, the UN Women Report reveals that at least 10 women were killed in Nairobi and other Kenyan cities in January.
Among the victims was a 26-year-old Instagram personality who was found dead in a short-stay room after a man she met online stabbed her. Another case involved a 20-year-old student who was killed and dismembered in a short-term rental apartment in Nairobi on January 14.
