On November 7, 2019, a heated discussion on the Classic 105 Morning show highlighted the issue of women denying their husbands conjugal rights.
Co-host Mwalimu King'ang'i proposed that such women should be held accountable for emotional abuse, suggesting a two-year jail sentence as a deterrent.
He argued that men who pay a dowry to own their wives have a right to conjugal rights, and denying them is akin to daylight robbery.
King'ang'i's comments sparked a lively debate, with some callers defending women's rights and others agreeing that the law should be fair and treat both men and women equally.
He also suggested that the law could be applied to men who deny their wives sex, encouraging emotionally abused women to lodge complaints with the police.
