Orie Rogo Manduli’s Daughter Jumps To Her Defense After Kenyans Labeled Her Mad

The iron lady was on the receiving end of backlash and criticism from a section of Kenyans who labeled her crazy, mad and/or insane after she sort suitors for her daughters with ultimatums and serious procedures to be followed.

Orie had said that she is expecting men of substance to come for her ladies, but these men should not be batterers and/or drunkards.

This, to many Kenyan men, meant the iron lady was not just harsh but also dictatorial.

However, her daughter who she is looking a suitor for, has jumped to the defense of her mother, saying that she is not mad as many people think and that she means well for them.

Speaking to the Nairobian, Janice Rogo says that her mother spoke their mind because there is no way they would get married to drunkards and batterers at the expense of their joy and life.

Janice says that many people think her mother is dictatorial and wants things done her way, something untrue.

“Let’s not pretend here. She simply said what any rational, well-meaning parent would tell their children, whether they are girls or boys. The only difference is that what she says makes news. If some of the readers who are postulating so loudly bothered to read the article, they would have noted that my mother was categorical that she will let her daughters write their own script. Mind you, we always have and always will,” Janice told the Nairobian.
