Meet The MP Who Has Vowed To Reward Men Who Marry From Other Tribes In His Constituency

Tribalism is the biggest challenge that Kenyans face today. It is tribalism that has stalled development in various parts of the country. It is through tribalism that ethnic conflicts are experienced every day. It is through tribalism that there is unequal distribution of resources in Kenya. In fact tribalism is a big thorn in the flesh of Kenyans, a thorn that we are still struggling to get rid of.

This explains why Kiminini legislator Chris Wamalwa has vowed to reward any man who formally marries a woman from another tribe.

To encourage the inter-tribal marriages, Wamalwa has said that he will give Kshs.10000 to any man who convinces a woman from another tribe to become his wife.

The legislator has said that the money will be given in two phases. The first phase will be when the man marries the woman and the second phase will be when the two get a child.

The MP is concerned that tribalism has taken toll of the country and in a bid to eradicate it, this remains the only possible way.

He has accused the government of failing to deal with tribalism.

Well, what is your take on this? Do you think this move will help eradicate the depravity?

Only time will tell.
