Suba North MP Millie Odhiambo has advised young Kenyan men to spot sending women fare.
Her advice comes at a time when men have been complaining about women ‘eating’ fare and blocking them or going silent once they send them cash.
Speaking to a local daily, the outspoken politician said,
WHY SEND THEM MONEY, TO BEGIN WITH? IN AN EQUAL WORLD, LET EVERYONE PAY FOR THEIR FARE. PAY FARE TO VISIT A MAN AND LET THE MAN PAY HIS OWN FARE TO VISIT YOU. IF YOU ARE FOOLISH ENOUGH TO SEND A WOMAN FARE TO VISIT YOU, DO NOT COMPLAIN IF THEY USE IT BECAUSE YOU’RE NO LONGER IN A RELATIONSHIP, BUT ARE AN ATM MACHINE AND ATMS DO NOT COMPLAIN WHEN PEOPLE WITHDRAW MONEY. RELATIONSHIPS SHOULD NOT BE COMMERCIALISED BY EITHER MEN OR WOMEN.
