The race for diferent politcal seats is heatign up and today Kenyans will be watching ODM’s Raila Odinga at Kasarani stadium in the much hyped azimia la umoja convention.
Thaty formed the basis of Maina Kageni’s Friday morning conversation, where he was told that women are not interested in politics.
This follows a confession from a colleague that she is upset all TV stations are covering the event and put off normal programming.
‘all tv stations are live from Kasarani. All. There is a lady I work with who told me women don’t give a damn about politicis. Apparently day time tv dramas have been suspended until the convention is done. And that is the whole day. Do you care for politics? how much does it mean to you?’
Mwalimu Kingangi said women voted based on looks ” ile politics wanakuanga nayo ni kwa nyumba’
that is her politics, her home, you think she gives a damn about Wetangula and so and so, wana penda doshi,waonyeshe doshi useme unasimama, they will vote for you’
The topic was opened up for the audience to contriobute to.
One woman blasted the media saying ‘yani maina nimenunua tv only kuletea ati anga do, yani I don’t care what is going on at Kasarani. Who caares ni pesa nitatafuta ama ni Tv nitaona ya ati baba nani? Why are you pushing ti down our throat? i am not interested in politicis, kwanza na hii mvuaiezi toka ka nyumba tv yangu ad iko kigocho’
Then one woman admitted to voting based on a male politicians looks. She cited the case of Kikuyu Mp Kimani Ichungwa, whom she claims was overwhelmingly voted for because he is handsome and has dimples to die for.
‘ladies don’t care like huku kikuyu kwetu we just voted for Ichungwa because he has ndonyi, he is handome and has dimples. I votef for Ichungwa because of dimples, also tulienda kuvote senator juu he is handsome, wanawake huvote hivyo not politics. We look at how he looks, not the manifesto, hatuna time ya manifesto, tulimpendea dimples’
