Esther Passaris, the Nairobi Woman Representative, has been facing intense backlash from Kenyans on social media over her recent comments on the allowances of Members of Parliament.
According to reports, Passaris had stated that she couldn't help solve all the problems Kenyans are currently facing, which sparked a heated debate on social media.
On July 11, 2019, Passaris took to Twitter to remind netizens that she had more between her ears than between her legs, sparking a fierce reaction from Kenyans.
Ask your father & mother what they think of me. You might learn a thing or two about women including your own mother, wife, sister, daughter. Hopefully you will learn that sex is overrated as an income earner. I have more between my ears than between my legs. — Hon. Esther M Passaris (@EstherPassaris) July 11, 2019
However, her comments were met with fierce criticism from Kenyans, with some even suggesting that she had more between her legs than her ears.
Passaris has refused to back down, continuing to engage with Kenyans on social media despite the intense backlash.
