President Uhuru Kenyatta has been linked to an embarrassing sex scandal involving junior civil servants who sought sexual favours from a woman who wanted to join a list of members of the public who would meet the Head of State.
Angeline Naliaka, who is one of the women living with disabilities in Bungoma County, claimed that one of the male public servants asked to sleep with her so that she could be allowed to receive the President during a recent visit to the county.
Kenyatta had visited the county while attending the first graduation ceremony at Kibabii University on November 24, where he is also the Chancellor.
As is routine, the President is received by a delegation comprising of government officials, locals, and area leaders.
“The man said that he would include my name on the list (of people to receive Uhuru) if I allowed him to come to my house on the eve of the President’s visit,” Naliaka stated.
The victim narrated that she declined the man’s demand but was surprised to find her name had been removed from the list of those allowed to receive the president.
Naliaka called on the government to be more responsive to the needs of the persons living with disabilities.
“We would like those in charge to allow us elect a lady representative (to the county government body of disabled people) whom we shall express our desires to when we are faced with challenges. It easier that way,” she added.
