the problem. But when it happens again,
questions will be asked.
Barely one month after receiving a powerful slap
from Nairobi Governor Evans Kidero, women rep
Rachael Shebesh was last week reportedly
slapped again.. This time by Sonko.
The Star newspaper yesterday reported that the
two Nairobi leaders were on Thursday night
involved in a physical fight at the Crowne Plaza
Hotel in Nairobi.
According to the paper, Shebesh checked in at
the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Upper Hill District
accompanied by Nairobi Sonko shortly past
10pm.
They booked the prestigious Business Suite on
5th floor for a meeting. Apparently, the two are
regulars there.
Some hours after their bodyguards had left, a
shouting match between the two ensued. "We
could just hear her (Shebesh) throwing some
unprintable words to the guest she was with.
However, we could not access the suite as the lift
to the 5th floor is controlled and restricted by our
seniors and the private guests only," said the
manager who spoke to the Star.
It's not clear who separated the two, but
Shebesh was not letting the matter slide. She
reported Sonko to the Coalition of Violence
Against Women (Covaw) lobby group, which has
since contacted Sonko and threatened to take
legal action.
"I have been told that she (Shebesh) has
reported the matter to Kilimani Police Station,
but time will tell the truth. Men are being
battered in silence but the so called Covaw which
is composed of divorcees has the tenacity to
attack men wherever they feel one of their own
has been mishandled," Sonko said on Sunday.
Shebesh could not be reached for her side of the
story.
Apart from the well documented Kidero slap,
Shebesh has allegedly been previously slapped
by Mama Ngina. Rumours were that Kenya's first
first lady even declared her persona-non-grata at
State House Nairobi.
