The Five Foul Mouthed Public Figures In Kenya Who Abused Their Freedom Of Expression (No. 5 Will Surprise you)

Individuals on the public platform whether they like it or not are always held on a higher moral and ethical threshold than the other mortals.

Their position gives them influence real and perceived and regardless of how they attained the position they are expected to at least embrace decorum in their undertakings. However, it is proving to be the opposite with some individuals and this year has seen some unique lows.

Moses Kuria

The Mp has to be holding the record for most charges on account of hate speech. From tribal to individuals to religions, when on full throttle his ability to pour vitriol is unmatched on the political scene. His actions aside from landing him in the justice corridors have also seen him being banned on using his social media accounts at one time. He is currently embroiled in the Fixing saga thanks to his loose cannon character.

Aden Duale

Aden Duale the leader of majority in parliament can count his popularizing of ‘si ya mamako’ as one of his achievements. In full presence of the Deputy President and all cameras, he made every other loose cannon in the country look like a mere amateur when he infamously uttered, ‘Hii pesa si mamako bana’ and had even  his allies cringing.

Njoki  Chege

It is not out of design that she comes next to politicians on this list. Her specialty is abusing large sections of the populace and thanks to her Daily Nation platform she can reach all of them even when they would have ignored her. Such is her foul way of expression she could be warning about a real tragedy but manages to alienate and infuriate even would be supporters. Her recent tirade against fat women is still in its after shocks.

Robert Alai

For a man of his standing, Alai does have a penchant for getting petty and really uncouth and uncivil. From his personal feud with Esther Passaris to his rather crude reference of Ciku Muiruri’s breasts and the sweat in a broadcaster’s armpits,  Alai just loses it when in a personal dispute with an individual.

Mutahi Ngunyi

This is a surprise inclusion given his personal dignatas prior to the moment of madness (though nowadays they tend to come in plenty for him). While he has been at times controversial, and not afraid to take the unconventional opinion, he has always tried to maintain an aura of someone above the follies of politicians. Yet his Twitter rant against a whole tribe was more than just a slur. He is currently out on bail for hate charges and it is hard to imagine him regaining his standing in society.
