Robert Alai On Demonstrators Against Stripping: You Are Just But Peddlers

Today is the d-day. This is the day when willing women and everybody will be joining together to protest in the streets of Nairobi over what they say is reckless stripping, harassment and assault on women by primitive blokes.

This follows some ugly incidences where a woman in Nairobi and another in Mombasa were stripped by touts and unruly men respectively for what they termed as indecent dressing.

The skimpy dressing has been the topic of discussion for the last one week and among those who have aired their disgust at the incident is Deputy President William Ruto.

Kilimani Mums have organised a demo that will take place today, starting from Simmers Club in uptown Nairobi towards Uhuru Park, dressed in mini-skirts.

Controversial blogger Robert has, however, labelled the demonstrators peddlers, probably because they are starting their demo from a club towards a park.

Well, do you know the meaning of the word peddler?

A peddler is a hawker, a seller or a street trader. So what Robert Alai exactly means by calling the demonstrators peddlers cannot be guessed exactly but that what he thinks about them.

It can be remembered that Robert Alai is among those opposed to the demonstrations because he strongly believes that the women who were stripped were scantily dressed.
