Wadau, kuna story inasikitisha sana imetokea kule Kasarani, Nairobi. On May 7, 2026, Geoffrey Mosiria, ambaye ni Nairobi County Chief Officer for Citizen Engagement, aliongoza a dramatic late-night rescue operation. Walifanikiwa kumuokoa binti mdogo wa miaka 14, an Ethiopian national, aliyekuwa ameshikiliwa kwenye forced marriage.
Huyu mtoto alikuwa ameshikiliwa tangu akiwa na umri wa miaka 12. Inasemekana her own uncle ndiye aliyemuuza kwa huyu mwanaume, na kwa sababu she had no other relatives hapa Kenya, alikuwa amekwama kabisa.
Neighbors na mlinzi wa hapo area ndio waliotoa ripoti baada ya kumsikia binti huyo akilia kila usiku pleading to be released. Wakati anaokolewa, it was discovered that the girl was pregnant and needed urgent medical attention kwa sababu ya a serious infection.
Mtuhumiwa, a 46-year-old man (reports zingine zinasema ni 60 years old), alitiwa mbaroni na kwa sasa yuko held at Kasarani Police Station kwa upelelezi zaidi.
Geoffrey Mosiria amelaani vikali ukatili huu. Alisema, "Every child deserves a dignified life, free from all forms of abuse and exploitation". Binti sasa yuko safe house akipata counseling na matibabu.
Inakuwaje mjomba unamuuza damu yako mwenyewe for money? Hii ni unyama wa hali ya juu. It’s high time we speak up against these child marriages.
What do you think should be done to such uncles and 'husbands' Dondosha maoni yako hapa chini.
