A Kenyan woman living in the diaspora has blasted some social media bullies, accusing them of vilifying their fellow Kenyans, especially in the US. 

Through a video posted on Facebook on Friday, Monica Ndegwa of Texas says the behavior of some Kenyans in the US using social media to hurl insults at their compatriots is unacceptable. Monica particularly singled out a lady identified as Caroline.

“She is spewing unimaginable insults. Even the language used is unbelievable. This has to stop,” Monica says in the video, urging Kenyans to refrain from watching videos livestreamed by those “inflicting pain on fellow women.”

Concerns have been raised over a growing trend of Kenyans using Facebook and other popular social networking sites to attack others using unpalatable language. 

Here are some reactions to Monica’s video.

Betty Achapa wrote: “I stand against bullying of any kind. Please my friends condemn bullying whether you are a victim or not, stop giving bullies airtime. We can address issues affecting our community without getting entangled in the drama. #BullyingMUSTstop.”

Lilly Richards said: “Mami, the sad thing is the example this women are putting out for these younger women. This older Kenyan community Is failing. The younger generation is much better that these women in their 40s and 50s spewing dirt out here.”

Shairo Wa D noted: “The vulgar language used is on another level.😭😭😭😭hata unashindwa Uko wapi.”

Mercie Cheronye commented: “Thank you for standing up against these behaviors.”

Kemunto Mosoba stated: “Guys need to stop bullying others they disagree with, it has become very toxic and it's killing people.”

Lorraine Dana wrote: “I’m just amazed how grown women have time for this! There’s so much going on the last thing we need is divisiveness and bickering back and forth. What are they trying to achieve?”
