Nairobi Women Representative Esther Passaris has reacted to her recent remarks about receiving Obsene Photos and Messages from young Kenyans.
The legislator, has told off Gen Zs, stating she's not after a 'Ben 10' and is old enough to be their mother, hence they should be respectful.
"The Bible says honour your Father and Mother, There's no honour in sending me obsene Photos and Asking to be my Ben 10. I'm a happily Married Woman." She said.
In a recent public statement, Nairobi Women Representative Esther Passaris voiced her frustration with the lack of respect from some young people online, following the Sharing of Her Number Online.
She detailed the extent of these interactions, sharing how some young people sent her explicit images, often with shocking comments.
“Sijui wanafikiria hiyo kitu ni nini lazima niiangalie. Wengine wananiambia vile wakona inches, inches na inches. Sasa mimi nafikiria, ‘wewe ni kijana kama mtoto wangu,’” she stated.
The Nairobi Women Representative who recently turned 60, underscored the disconnect in values that these interactions reveal, pointing out that such behavior overlooks her age and role in society.
Passaris went on to condemn these actions, calling them not only disrespectful but also troubling. She questioned why some young people feel comfortable sending such personal images, especially when they know little about the recipient beyond their public profile.
“Then you remove your innerwear and proceed to take a picture of your private part. Unaniambia nifanye nini na hiyo kitu?” she asked.
Passaris even suggested that some images might not even belong to the senders but are simply downloads from the internet.
"Ata labda si yako, you have downloaded it online because yours isn’t even photogenic.” she added.
