Dear Kenyans and Friends, We would like to express our deep regret for our conduct on the James Wuod Maggero Memorial day.
We accept that it was a bad show of conduct on both of us and we would like to take this opportunity to apologize to Kenyans and friends for any inconveniences which might have been caused.
We would like to assure all concerned that we have sorted out our differences and resolved the issue amicably between us. We thank Kenyan elders for good advice. We wish to assure all concerned that such conduct will never occur again between us. Regards.
Antony and Eunice
KSB NOTE:
We congratulate the couple for their bold move to seek help from people in a position to handle the matter and to go public that the issue has been resolved amicably. Other Kenyans should learn from the experience.
About the Author
Antony Adiwa is another wife batterer. This happened at the late Maggero’s Memorial early 2007 and witnessed by people. Imagine all that gymn energy released on a woman in the form of punches – Quite Shameful!
Some men in Kenya-Stockholm are setting grand records in beating their spouses. Osewe has recorded at least five known cases of gender-based violence in our community during the past two years.
KSB: Caro: Do you have some stuff to sort out with Adiwa or is this posting an innocent addition to the wife-beat theme playing at KSB? just wondering…
It’s an innocent post Osewe and I commend you for the documentation. History repeats itself and we see that the battering of women is increasing among us. As a Kenyan woman, I feel that this is becoming an issue which people need to focus upon to resolve.
