Kenya: Women protest their husbands’ inability to impregnate them due to alcohol

A group of Kenyan women have threatened to look elsewhere to be able to bear children because their husbands are unable to make them pregnant due to excessive consumption of ‘anything alcoholic’.

The women said they may be forced to look for ‘sober bedmates’ because their husbands are unable to perform in bed due to the problem.Speaking during a peaceful protest at Thigio Shopping Centre, the demonstrators, mostly from Ndeya Ward, alleged that the younger ones are the worst affected as they have become ‘unproductive’.

Women in Kenya, Ndeiya ward have said their drunkard husbands are unable to sire children and they may look elsewhere for sober bedmates.

They said their men had abandoned their homes for drinking too much illicit brew. Speaking during a peaceful protest at Thigio shopping centre, one of the demonstrators said younger women are the worst affected as they are “unproductive”.

If you walk in this village, you will find so many young married women, but only a few are pregnant. Those who are not are suffering in silence because their men cannot perform, resident, Nancy Wangare said.

She said men had been drinking anything alcoholic to keep them high, but the society bore the consequences of sexual dysfunction.

It would not be a wonder if we start looking for men to sire our children. Our husbands will not know anything. We will trick them that the pregnancies are theirs and they will support us, Wangare said.

The 32-year-old mother of one separated from her husband four years ago.
