Bodyguards attached to Nairobi Women Representative Esther Passaris whisked her away to safety after activists protesting rising femicide cases heckled her.
The group which turned rowdy condemned the MP whom they accused of maintaining her silence amid the rising cases that saw women murdered across the country.
“Where were you? Go home! Where were you!” The activists protested against the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) MP who had attempted to address them at Jevanjee Gardens.
Passaris was also forced to climb down from a makeshift podium after the crowd blocked her from speaking.
Attempts by the organisers to restore calm were futile, forcing Passaris to resort to joining the protesters in their walk instead.
Nonetheless, the activists presented their petition and asked her to forward it to Parliament.
