Esther Passaris In Heated Debate With Andrew Kibe Over Harassment Of School Girls

Posted on by Dennis Elnino

Nairobi Woman Representative Esther Passaris has clashed publicly with controversial content creator Andrew Kibe over her condemnation of young men harassing school-going girls under the guise of online content creation.

The dispute escalated on Wednesday, November 26, 2025, when Passaris took to X (formerly Twitter) to vehemently respond to Kibe, who had suggested her stance on gender-based violence (GBV) was financially motivated.

Passaris questioned Kibe’s opposition to calls for the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) to act against the men involved in the disturbing videos, insisting her motive was concern for the victims.

“Oh, please, Kibe, save us your puny lambistic, brain-matter-draining commentary,” Passaris posted. “So, condemning harassment is now paid work? Then truly, I must have missed my invoice.”

“Assault Should Never Be Condoned”

The Woman Representative made it unequivocally clear that assault should never be excused, regardless of the gender of the perpetrator or victim.

Passaris’s response was triggered by Kibe’s defense of the young men. Her initial post shared a video showing young men physically touching girls in school uniform, an act she described as “shocking and traumatizing.”

“I have come across several videos of young men sexually harassing girls in the name of content. It is shocking that such acts are being viewed as entertainment,” Passaris had stated, demanding immediate action. “I am calling on the DCI to apprehend these boys immediately.”

Kibe Rejects GBV Narrative

In response, Andrew Kibe rejected Passaris’ position, accusing her of promoting a “dangerous and misguided” narrative.

“Stop pushing this stupid narrative about young men. It is dangerous and misguided,” Kibe wrote, dismissing the serious nature of the content Passaris was condemning.

Passaris concluded her post by challenging Kibe’s presence, asking, “By the way, bado uko US ama kiliumana? Karibu Nyumbani,” while underscoring that assault is unacceptable.

Nairobi Woman Rep Esther Passaris and Creator Andrew Kibe Clash Online Over Viral Harassment Video

Posted on by Ozymandias

Nairobi County Woman Representative Esther Muthoni Passaris and outspoken content creator Andrew Kibe have locked horns on X following a viral clip that appeared to show a young male creator inappropriately touching a girl during a street interview.

Passaris Condemns Harassment in Content Creation

The confrontation began after Passaris shared the footage, calling out what she described as a growing trend of young male content creators sexually harassing girls under the guise of filming social media content.

“I have come across several videos of young men sexually harassing girls in the name of content. Shockingly, such acts are being viewed as entertainment,” she wrote.

Passaris argued that the behaviour is normalized by peers who stand by passively, describing it as a “diabolical abomination” that risks inflicting trauma on young women. She urged the DCI to immediately arrest those involved and reiterated the need for stricter regulation of online spaces.

The legislator also linked the incident to the ongoing 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence, noting that this year’s theme—“UNITE to End Digital Violence Against All Women and Girls”—underscores the urgency of addressing such conduct.

Kibe Fires Back, Calls Narrative ‘Dangerous’

Andrew Kibe responded swiftly, accusing Passaris of unfairly targeting young men and promoting what he termed “The Great GBV Agenda.”

“Stop pushing this stupid narrative about young men. It’s dangerous and misguided. I do not condone assault on men or women, but let’s deal with each case individually,” he said, further alleging that Passaris had been paid to advance a particular agenda.

He claimed the criticism of male creators amounted to a blanket demonization of young African men, calling it “evil and straight from the devil’s handbook.”

Passaris Hits Back With a Sharp Rebuttal

Passaris dismissed Kibe’s comments as “puny, lambistic, brain-matter-draining commentary,” questioning how condemning harassment could possibly be considered paid work.

“So, condemning harassment is now paid work? Then truly, I must have missed my invoice,” she responded, noting that her remarks were directed at a specific incident visible in the viral video.

She doubled down on her stance, insisting that assault should never be defended or trivialized, regardless of gender.

In a pointed parting shot, she addressed Kibe directly: “Bado uko US ama kiliumana? Karibu nyumbani.” (Are you still in the US, or did things go wrong? Welcome home.)

Pastor Ng’ang’a Fires Back at Esther Passaris After Viral Video Sparks Outrage

Posted on by Ozymandias

Controversial preacher Apostle James Ng’ang’a of Neno Evangelism Centre has finally broken his silence following the explosive viral video that triggered public outrage and calls for his arrest.

In the clip, which circulated widely online, Ng’ang’a appeared to confess to a shocking past crime, sparking uproar and prompting Nairobi Woman Representative Esther Passaris to demand that the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) open a probe into the pastor’s remarks.

But now, the fiery preacher is hitting back — claiming his words were “taken completely out of context.”

“It Was a Testimony, Not a Confession” — Ng’ang’a Defends Himself

Speaking during a live church service, Pastor Ng’ang’a dismissed the accusations, saying that his controversial remarks were part of a spiritual testimony, not an admission of guilt.

“People twisted my words. I was giving a testimony of how far God has brought me, not confessing to a crime,” he declared to his congregation.

He went on to accuse politicians, including Esther Passaris, of double standards and hypocrisy, claiming they were using his name to gain attention instead of addressing the country’s real problems.

“These MPs should stop pretending to be holy. Some of them have done worse things in private, yet they are pointing fingers at me,” Ng’ang’a said.

Passaris Demands Accountability

Earlier in the week, Passaris had taken to social media to call for an investigation, saying that if the viral video was authentic, it amounted to a criminal confession and not a sermon.

She wrote:

“In this era of AI-generated videos, I don’t know if it’s genuine or fake, but one thing remains — it MUST be investigated.”

Passaris urged Ng’ang’a to surrender to authorities if his remarks were true and to name the other individuals allegedly involved.

Public Debate Heats Up

The clash between the two high-profile figures has reignited fierce online debate about morality, religion, and accountability in Kenya.

Supporters of Ng’ang’a say he is being unfairly targeted by politicians and the media, while critics argue that the pastor’s frequent controversies have crossed too many lines.

As of now, the DCI has not confirmed whether any formal investigation has been launched.

Meanwhile, Pastor Ng’ang’a remains defiant — promising to continue preaching and warning his critics that “no man can silence the servant of God.”

Pastor Ng’ang’a’s big mouth lands him in trouble with Esther Passaris

Posted on by Ozymandias

Controversial preacher Apostle James Ng’ang’a of Neno Evangelism Ministry has once again stirred national debate after a video clip allegedly showing him making disturbing remarks went viral online.

The undated footage, widely circulated across social media, appears to capture Pastor Ng’ang’a making what seems to be a shocking confession during a church service — a revelation that has triggered outrage and calls for investigation.

The Alleged Confession

In the video, Ng’ang’a is reportedly heard recounting a disturbing act from his past, claiming he was among an eight-member gang that assaulted a woman many years ago.

His alleged words were direct and unsettling:

“We assaulted one woman while we were eight people. We did it.”

The clip quickly went viral, with many Kenyans expressing anger and disbelief. However, the authenticity of the video has not yet been independently verified, raising questions about whether it could have been digitally manipulated.

Passaris Demands DCI Investigation

Among those who publicly reacted to the viral clip was Nairobi Woman Representative Esther Passaris, who on Tuesday, October 7, 2025, called for the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) to probe the matter.

Acknowledging the possibility of AI-generated or edited content, Passaris nonetheless insisted that such a serious claim must be investigated.

“In this era of AI-generated and manipulated videos, I don’t know if the clip is genuine or a deep fake; but one thing remains—it MUST be investigated,” she posted on X.

She added that if the footage is verified as authentic, the alleged confession would amount to a criminal admission, not a sermon, and authorities should take immediate action.

“If that video is real, then it is not a sermon—it is a criminal confession. It should have been flagged instantly, and the pastor picked up for questioning by the authorities.”

Call for Accountability and Justice

Passaris went further to challenge Pastor Ng’ang’a to surrender himself to police if the confession is indeed genuine, and to reveal the identities of his alleged accomplices to ensure justice for the survivor.

“As a man of God, if the pastor did make that confession, he should surrender himself to the police, name the eight others involved, and help deliver justice for the survivor,” she stated.

The legislator also expressed deep concern for the victim referenced in the alleged confession, questioning her current well-being and life after the reported ordeal.

“I keep wondering where the woman is today. How has her life been since that ordeal?” Passaris wrote, adding prayers for the survivor and all victims of sexual violence.

Esther Passaris Opens Up on Language Struggles and Dyslexia

Posted on by Ozymandias

Nairobi Woman Representative Esther Passaris has offered a candid reflection on her struggles with languages, linking them to her dyslexia and sharing how personal expectations did not pan out as she had once hoped.

In a series of tweets, Passaris spoke openly about what she considers a lifelong weakness with language—something she has since learned to accept, embrace, and even draw strength from.

A Personal Struggle

Passaris revealed that despite marrying a Kikuyu man, she never managed to learn Kikuyu as she had initially expected. She admitted that language has never been her strong suit, having failed Kiswahili and only just managing through “the King’s English.”

“I don’t speak Kikuyu. Thought a Kikuyu husband would enable the language; it didn’t. A girl is allowed to dream. Being dyslexic, language isn’t my forte. I barely make it through the King’s English; I failed Kiswahili; picked a few Italian phrases whilst in Italy; a few Greeks swear,” she tweeted in response to a follower who challenged her to record herself speaking Kikuyu.

Embracing Imperfection

Rather than viewing her difficulties as shortcomings, Passaris described them as part of her identity—proof that perfection is not a prerequisite for success.

“One can fail a subject; and still excel in life. You do not need to have an A to excel. We all have different talents and the sky is not the limit. I am perfectly imperfect,” she stated.

She added that she fully embraces every aspect of herself:

“I own my story. I’m in love with the whole of me; the good; the bad; the ugly notwithstanding. Why? Because everyone can love me for my good points.”

Finding Her Own Voice

Passaris also disclosed that the Kiswahili she now speaks was acquired during her political campaigns rather than in formal education.

“I learnt the Swahili I speak on my political trail. My take on life: It’s those who love me irrespective of my bad points that truly love me. Love starts within, not without.”

For Passaris, the true language she values most is not tied to grammar or fluency, but to authenticity and humanity. In her words, love itself is the universal language that everyone can understand.

Online Feud Erupts Between Esther Passaris and Ciru Muriuki Amid National Unrest

Posted on by Ozymandias

A high-profile war of words has broken out on X (formerly Twitter) between Nairobi Woman Representative Esther Passaris and media personality Ciru Muriuki, dominating online conversation over the past 48 hours.

The public spat, which began on June 16, 2025, has spiraled into a clash over political responsibility, digital activism, and personal branding—exposing simmering tensions between Kenya’s political establishment and outspoken online influencers.

The Spark

The drama began when Passaris, a prominent ODM legislator and women’s rights advocate, posted a cryptic but scathing tweet accusing unnamed media figures of seeking attention rather than addressing the country’s escalating crises.

“Some are busy trending for likes while Kenya bleeds—step up or step aside,” Passaris wrote.

Many interpreted the comment as a veiled swipe at Muriuki, who has gained a strong following for her outspoken views on governance and social justice, especially amid public outrage over the recent police shooting of Boniface Kariuki.

The Clapback

Muriuki wasted no time firing back the following day:

“@EstherPassaris, maybe focus on delivering for Nairobi instead of policing my lane. Your silence on real issues is louder than my ‘clout.’ #DoYourJob.”

The tweet, which quickly racked up over 10,000 likes, struck a nerve, with many users praising Muriuki for calling out what they viewed as performative leadership.

Escalation

Passaris responded with a more direct attack, accusing Muriuki of hypocrisy:

“@CiruMuriuki, your sanctimony won’t erase your history of gimmicks. I serve my people—you serve yourself.”

She also alluded to past controversies involving Muriuki, including a well-known 2022 online spat over her X handle with fellow personality Ciku Muiruri.

Muriuki’s response was equally sharp:

“@EstherPassaris, my ‘gimmicks’ have more impact than your empty promises. Check the polls, not my bio.”

She attached a screenshot of a recent opinion poll showing declining approval ratings for the Nairobi legislator.

Divided Support

The exchange has polarized Kenyans online. ODM loyalists stood by Passaris, with one user posting:

“Esther has done more for Nairobi than any influencer ever will. #RespectLeadership.”

In contrast, Gen Z and digital-first activists rallied around Muriuki. A tweet from @GenZKibera declared:

“Ciru speaks for the youth. Passaris is just pressed. #TeamCiru.”

The hashtag #TeamCiru trended briefly, signaling Muriuki’s growing influence among younger voters.

Old Wounds Resurface

The feud has also reignited speculation about a long-standing grudge. In her latest tweet, Muriuki claimed:

“This isn’t about clout—it’s about her ego. She’s been holding a grudge since I refused to bow to media gatekeeping.”

Passaris hit back with a pointed jab:

“Your ego built a brand on borrowed names. Real impact doesn’t need theatrics.”

Public Reaction

While some are reveling in the online drama, others are urging both women to shift focus back to pressing national matters.

@ShiroKE tweeted:

“Both Passaris and Muriuki should be directing their energy toward demanding justice for Boniface Kariuki. This isn’t the time for ego battles.”

@KamauInsights added:

“This spat reflects a wider divide—leaders who dodge accountability vs. influencers forced to fill the void. Kenya deserves better from both.”

What’s Next?

As of June 18, 2025, 11:21 AM EAT, the feud shows no sign of cooling off. Passaris has hinted at an upcoming press conference to “clear the air”, while Muriuki teased a live Instagram session later today to “set the record straight.”

With public attention fixed on both the conflict and the larger national crisis, the question remains: Will either woman rise above the fray—or will the feud continue to distract from Kenya’s call for justice

Passaris Urges President Suluhu To Probe Alleged Torture Of Activists In Tanzania

Posted on by Dennis Elnino

Nairobi Woman Representative Esther Passaris has strongly condemned the alleged torture of Kenyan activist Boniface Mwangi and Ugandan lawyer Agather Atuhaire while in detention in Tanzania, calling on President Samia Suluhu to ensure justice is served.

In a statement issued on Tuesday, June 2, Passaris urged the Tanzanian leader to take swift action against the officers reportedly involved in the inhumane treatment of the activists.

Mwangi and Atuhaire were arrested in Dar es Salaam on May 20, 2025, where they were attending a court hearing for Tanzanian opposition leader Tundu Lissu, who is facing treason charges.

Disturbing Accounts of Torture and Humiliation

Passaris expressed deep disturbance over the reported torture and abuse of Boniface and Agather during their detention, appealing to President Suluhu to prevent such atrocities from recurring.

“I call on her, not just as a head of state but as a mother and champion for change, to ensure that such atrocities are not repeated and that justice is served,” Passaris emphasized.

In a press briefing held on June 2, Boniface Mwangi recounted a harrowing ordeal. He alleged that he was subjected to severe torture, including being taken to a secret location under orders from a high-ranking Tanzanian state security official. Mwangi narrated that he was “stripped naked, flogged, and even sodomized using objects during his time in captivity in Tanzania.”

“They tied me upside down, and then they started beating my feet. I was screaming so hard, but there were no tears coming out because of how painful it was. One of them suggested that they put underwear in my mouth, so they did. To drown my screams, they were playing gospel music,” Mwangi vividly described.

Agather Atuhaire shared a similarly disturbing account, recalling being stripped naked and tortured. She stated that the first blow was to her back after she refused to undress, before being forcefully undressed and violated.

After being missing for three days in Tanzania, both activists were reportedly found “dumped at the borders of their country and Tanzania” after being deported by road.

A Stain on the Region’s Conscience

Passaris asserted that the unlawful arrest and inhumane treatment of Mwangi and Atuhaire are not only egregious violations of their fundamental rights but also “a stain on the region’s collective conscience.”

“As a mother, legislator, and defender of human rights, I am deeply disturbed by the accounts of torture, sexual abuse, and humiliation they endured. They are not the values that define our continent, our leadership, or our future,” she added, underscoring the severity of the alleged human rights abuses.

Esther Passaris Backs Adani’s Management Deal for JKIA

Posted on by Ozymandias

Nairobi Women Representative Esther Passaris has expressed her support for Adani Group’s proposed takeover of the management of JKIA airport.

During a media briefing, Passaris emphasized that the government needs to be transparent about the project and engage the public in discussions.

“I hope we can find a resolution. As a government, we should be willing to have an open dialogue. Kenyans also need to understand what the Adani Group is offering. I’ve been to Ahmedabad Airport for medical reasons, and it was developed by Adani. Four years ago, it was a subpar airport; now, it’s a five-star facility. One major challenge we face is that whenever a tender is awarded, multiple parties show interest in that same contract,” Passaris stated.

She added, “The government should clearly communicate the details of the investment to help the public understand the extent of Adani’s involvement at the airport.”

The strike over this issue, which has been brewing for weeks, was prompted by a notice from the Kenya Aviation Workers Union (KAWU) on August 12, opposing the proposed lease of JKIA to the Indian conglomerate Adani Group.

This notice followed unsuccessful negotiations between the union and government officials. KAWU Secretary-General Moss Ndiema expressed concerns that the agreement could result in significant job losses, the hiring of foreign workers, and poorer working conditions.

Additionally, KAWU demanded the resignation of the Kenya Airports Authority (KAA) Board of Directors and three senior managers, citing incompetence and poor handling of the leasing process.

There was a temporary pause when KAWU announced a seven-day strike postponement on August 31, after KAA partially agreed to release some requested documents. However, the situation escalated again shortly thereafter.

With no significant progress from KAA, the unionized workers resumed their protests ten days later. KAWU made it clear they would only consider halting the strike if the proposed sale of JKIA was completely scrapped and if the KAA board and managers stepped down as demanded.

The union argued that their drastic actions were due to the government’s failure to provide the necessary documentation. The strike follows a recent High Court decision to temporarily suspend the proposed lease of the airport.

The Kenya Human Rights Commission (KHRC) and the Law Society of Kenya (LSK) have challenged the deal, stating that the 30-year lease to the Indian firm is unreasonable and violates principles of good governance, accountability, transparency, and prudent management of public resources.

Under the proposed Ksh246 billion agreement, the Adani Group would upgrade the airport by building a second runway and a new passenger terminal under a 30-year build-operate-transfer (BOT) model.

The company would also be responsible for renovations, refurbishments, and managing JKIA, which is Kenya’s largest and East Africa’s busiest airport.

The government has defended the deal, arguing that JKIA is operating beyond its designed capacity of 7.5 million passengers per year and urgently needs upgrades. They also pointed out that modernizing JKIA would cost $2 billion, a budget the government currently cannot afford.

For the latter reason, Passaris has been roped in to the conversation.

The colliquy on whether the Finance Bill is worth it has got netizens all over sharing their sentiments, with most of them complaining that the taxation would be quite hefty for them.

Esther Passaris Gives Her Cryptic View On Recent Femicide Cases

Posted on by Dennis Elnino

Following public concern about the recent femicide cases in Nairobi, Woman Representative Esther Passaris offered a response that has received mixed reactions. In reply to a citizen’s query about her stance on the issue, Passaris provided a cryptic statement:

“Those with ears; hear. Those with eyes; see. Those with mouths; taste. Those who search; find. Those who snooze; lose. Those who ask dumb questions; get smart answers.”

While some interpret this as a call for individual awareness and engagement on the issue, others find it dismissive and lacking concrete action. The netizen who posed the initial question had directly asked Passaris’s position on the killings of young women in Nairobi County, where three recent cases have sparked outrage.

“What is your position or statement on the killings of young people in our county Nairobi? Aren’t you Woman rep for Nairobi County where nearly 5 women have so far died mysteriously?” the citizen inquired.

The urgency of the matter is undeniable. Within just three weeks, four women have been killed across the region, highlighting a disturbing trend of violence against women. Three of these tragedies occurred in Nairobi County itself, with intimate partners suspected in three cases.

Shifting Focus to Action and Empathy

While Passaris’s response has ignited debate, the focus should remain on demanding concrete action and solutions to address this ongoing crisis. Instead of cryptic pronouncements, the public deserves clear leadership and tangible efforts from their elected representatives.

A more constructive approach would involve:

  • Publicly condemning the violence: A strong and unequivocal statement from Passaris condemning the femicide cases and expressing solidarity with the victims and their families would signal a clear stance on the issue.
  • Demanding thorough investigations: Calling for swift and thorough investigations into these cases, ensuring justice for the victims and deterring future perpetrators, is crucial.
  • Supporting initiatives addressing the root causes: Advocating for and supporting initiatives that address the root causes of gender-based violence, such as gender inequality, economic vulnerability, and toxic masculinity, is essential for long-term prevention.

Passaris’s role as the Woman Representative of Nairobi carries significant responsibility in safeguarding the well-being of women in the community. Moving beyond enigmatic pronouncements and towards concrete action and empathy is the true measure of effective leadership in this critical moment.

Esther Passaris advises women to delay motherhood

Posted on by Ozymandias

Esther Passaris, the Women Representative for Nairobi County, urged young women to refrain from rushing into motherhood before they are truly ready.

She emphasized that in today’s age of advanced technology, women have the option to become mothers at a later stage in life, citing that some women have successfully given birth even at the age of 50.

Passaris shared her personal experience, revealing that she had her first child when she was 32 years old. She also shared a personal anecdote from her high school days when she had a boyfriend, but she couldn’t even recall his name or current whereabouts. She humorously emphasized that teenage crushes often do not lead to lasting relationships and advised young women to prioritize their education.

“Some of you might have a guy that you think is cute, and he thinks you are beautiful, but remember, the minute he touches you, he will continue with his education, you will become a mother, a teen mum,” she said.

Passaris also mentioned the Kenyan musician Akothee, known as the “president of single mothers,” who has six children. She reminded the audience that Akothee’s experiences are unique to her, and young women should focus on their studies and enjoy their youth rather than rushing into motherhood.

“You know, I don’t if you know Akothee, she calls herself the president of single mothers. She has six and they came following each other. I am telling you as teenagers soon to be young adults, you are here to study, that we do not want you to become mothers before you are mature enough to become mothers. Enjoy your childhood,” she added.

Passaris’ message is important for young women to hear. It is important to remember that motherhood is a lifelong commitment, and it is important to be ready for all of the challenges and responsibilities that come with it. Young women should focus on their education and personal growth before starting a family.

Esther Passaris Explains Why She Voted For The Finance Bill 2023

Posted on by Dennis Elnino

Nairobi Woman Representative Esther Passaris has defended her decision to vote in favor of the Finance Bill 2023, which includes a provision for a 1.5% housing levy on working Kenyans.

Passaris, who is a member of the opposition Orange Democratic Movement (ODM), said she voted in favor of the bill because she believes it will ultimately benefit Kenyans.

“I have a dream of a Kenya where the image of slums remains in our history books and not in our motherland,” Passaris said. “For the millions of Kenyans living in the over 1,400 slums, I voted YES on the housing levy.”

Passaris said she is convinced that President William Ruto has a plan to build affordable houses for Kenyans.

“I believe that the government has a plan to use the housing levy to build affordable houses for Kenyans,” Passaris said. “This is a long-term investment that will benefit Kenyans for generations to come.”

Passaris’s decision to vote for the Finance Bill has been met with mixed reactions. Some people have praised her for her willingness to put the needs of Kenyans ahead of party politics, while others have criticized her for supporting a bill that they believe will disproportionately burden the poor.

Only time will tell whether Passaris’s decision will ultimately benefit Kenyans. However, her vote is a clear indication that she is committed to improving the lives of the people she represents.

Esther Passaris joins campaign pushing for the legalization of Medical Marijuana

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

Before Kibra MP Ken Okoth met his untimely death due to throat cancer; the MP had been on a mission to have marijuana legalised in Kenya a campaign that is now getting much attention.

The late Mr Okoth believed that growing and safe use of Marijuana would boost the economy and at the same time provide jobs for the youth.

In the letter the MP wrote to National Assembly Speaker Justin Muturi on legalization of Marijuana he stated;

“The proposed Bill seeks to ensure that there is regulation for growth and safe use of marijuana and hemp including the registration of growers of growers, producers, manufacturers and users with special focus on protection of children/minors from illicit use just as we do with tobacco and alcohol,”

Passaris joins band wagon

In a repost tweet shared by Passaris we now understand that she is also supporting legalization of medicinal marijuana.

This is because Medical marijuana uses the marijuana plant or chemicals in it to treat diseases or conditions.

However, it is basically the same product as recreational marijuana, but now taken for medical purposes.

The last 24 hours haven’t been too smooth for Nairobi Woman Representative Esther Passaris.

Passaris was recently attacked on social media after saying that she can’t help solve all the problems Kenyans are currently facing.

She then lost her cool and started exchanging bitter words with netizens on the issue of the allowances. Apparently, MPs want more allowances because they are broke.

Since then, Kenyans have been attacking her in all kind of ways and the mother of one hasn’t backed down.

24 hours later, she’s still firing back at insults being hurled at her online.

In one of the recent tweets on Thursday, July 11, the woman rep had to remind netizens that what she had between her ears was more pretty than what could be found between her legs.

“Ask your father and mother what they think of me. You might learn a thing or two about women including your own mother, wife, sister, daughter. Hopefully you will learn that sex is overrated as an income earner. I have more between my ears than between my legs,” she tweeted.

Problem

Passaris blamed Kenyans for their dependency on their leaders to settle personal issues, in the process, angering many.

“We represent citizens who look to leaders for their personal expenses from rent, medical, funerals, school fees, food, etc. Leaders in other countries are not expected to settle constituents personal bills. When we move from dependency to independency (sp) we can reduce our wages,” tweeted Passaris.

Leaked phone call of Nairobi Woman Rep Esther Passaris allegedly begging Sonko money gets mixed reaction

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

It all started during Madaraka Day celebrations when Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko blasted Woman Rep Esther Passaris for always calling him.

“Mimi si bwana yako nishike simu zako kila wakati,” Sonko said while on the podium as the crowd cheered. 

Passaris then walked away from her seat and off the podium as the crowd shouted enda enda.

Now, a phone call allegedly from Passaris to the governor has been leaked online by Robert Alai. In the phone call,  Passaris is asking for 500K before he can go for a meeting.

“I went for a strategy meeting, and I was given some strategy which I told baba (Raila) to use..and baba listened to me. He used the strategy at the Jakaranda, ok? And baba has already told someone, a relative of his that this one is now going to be my kingpin in Nairobi…So tomorrow at seven o’clock; we are going to see him (Raila); I want to go with half a million, everybody is going with KSh 500,00, but me I do not have the money,” the lady said.

I have a wife

Sonko then agrees to help her with the cash after the two talk for sometime. It’s not yet clear if it was actually Passaris making the call.

Later in the video the lady says that she’s ready to love Sonko for free if he gives her the money but Sonko says he has a wife.

“I will give you KSh 500,000 today…when are you going to see baba (Raila)?” Sonko inquired. “Seven in the morning tomorrow,” she replied. “Okay, I will give you KSh 500,000 today,” he assured.

Women Rep Esther Passaris honored in India

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

Esther Passaris undergoes surgery at Nairobi Hospital

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

Nairobi Woman Representative Esther Passaris has undergone surgery at Nairobi Hospital to address a goiter growth. Passaris, who underwent the surgery on Wednesday, January 9, informed her followers on social media later on saying that she has been suffering for 10 years now before it started getting worse.

“It has been growing over the last 10 years. Now it has becomes more recognizable and I choke at night sometimes. I even find it hard to maintain my steady breath,” said the combative legislator. 

Consultation

The Women Rep said that family and friends wanted her to travel abroad for the treatment but she decided to give local hospital a chance. After researching and talking to a few doctors, she then became convinced there was no need to go abroad.

“I went to see my doctor and she said a goiter can be operated very easily in Kenya and it was not an operation that you have to go out. An other surgeon informed me he operates at least 50 goiter cases annually. If our salt had enough iodine, we would reduce the number of goiter cases. KEBS have to test all salt in the market and ensure the levels of iodine are the required ones needed to prevent goiter,” she said. 

Among those who visited and wished her well are Education CS Amina Mohamed and former presidential candidate Martha Karua.

Nairobi Woman Representative Esther Passaris ushered the new year with her daughter Makenna Ngugi in style at a undisclosed location.

The 54-year-old former model also had a message for all others who always go after demeaning and trolling women who like to looking good and boujee: respect them in 2019.

The Woman Representative posted a clip on Twitter slaying with her daughter in the party, and urged people to respect slay queens unlike what has been happening in the past.

Slayers

“Let’s embrace and allow each other to be the best that we can be without destroying the core of who God (and not Men Playing God) wants us to be,” she said. 

It’s not the first time Passaris has defended “Slayers”. Last year, she said that there’s nothing wrong with being a slay queen.

“There is a lot of talk about Slay Queens, so this is what slaying is all about, it is about loving yourself putting your lipstick, doing a kiss having a photograph, slaying isn’t about prostitution. Our young teenagers our young girls slay. Even I have slayed with my daughter on the photograph so let’s just cut this conversation about slay queens and kings.

“When you see governor Joho he puts a picture of himself looking very cool and nothing no comment whatsoever, what do you call that? That is slaying. So there is nothing wrong with slaying it’s about being confident of who you are and your space,” said Esther Passaris.

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

Passaris narrated how she met a Kenyan man who made awesome chapatis but begged her not to tell anyone as his community doesn’t approve the idea of men cooking.

“Juzi nilikuwa kwa Mnandi mmoja huko ulaya, anapika chapati hata kuniliko. Nikamwambia wewe ukikuja Nairobi utakuja kunipikia ama nikikuje Eldoret. Akaniambia we hata usiende kusema ati mimi napika chapati mi ni Mnandi na hatuingii jikoni tupike chapati hata kama bibi ni mgojwa tunamrudisha kwa mamake akipona arudi,” she said.

Joint effort

The Woman Representative went on to say that cost of leaving in Kenya has skyrocketed therefore couples need to work together in order to build a family.

“Nimeona wanawake wanateseka sana wakati mwanaume anaaga. Mwanaume akona kampuni ya construction na bibi hata hajui kuweka saini kwa hio account. Hata hajui account iko wapi hata hajui contract bwanake anafanya, halafu family inakuja inasukuma mama vibaya,” she said.

Adding:

“Hata sisi tunavaa longi na overall, hata tunakuwa kwa mjengo na hio ndege ya Kenya Airways inaenda America inapelekwa na mwanamke, kwani hakukuwa na mwanaume pilot? Lakini tumeona kweli wamama pia wanaweza hio kazi,” she said.

Nairobi Woman Representative Esther Passaris is now officially 54 years old and over the weekend, marked turning an year older in a special way.

The mother of two, who has always enjoyed praises from Kenyans because of her looks, spent her special day with children who have been rescued from sexually abusive homes.

She took to social media to share about the occasion, thanking Mike Sonko also for chipping in.

“I had the pleasure of celebrating my 54th birthday at a shelter for children who’ve been rescued from sexually abusive family environments, some of which resulted in pregnancies. It is disheartening that even disabled or mentally challenged youngsters are being preyed on by relatives and neighbors. We must speak out and raise our voices against SGVB and demand perpetrators to face the full force of the law. 

Support

Adding:

“I thank Gov Mike Sonko for his generous contribution towards my birthday; it enabled me to make the day even more special for the children. We were joined by another family that also came to celebrate their birthday at the shelter and together we brought cheer to the community. 
Mary deserves a state commendation for her dedication to these children and our office will continue to give her support towards their rehabilitation and reintegration.”
