Actress Kate leads the Nyeri anti-femicide march.

On Friday, actress Catherine Kamau, also known as Kate actress, spearheaded a march against femicide in Nyeri.

Kate shared moments from the ongoing march on her social media platforms, emphasizing her role as a mother and a woman with a position in society to protect fellow women.

“I feel as a woman, an entertainer, and someone who holds a position in society, I have a responsibility to protect women. The majority of my following are women. The people who have supported me through and through are women.

“I am a mother, I am a woman, and I have a right to life. My sisters have a right to life,” expressed Kate.

“I have a responsibility to protect and speak against any form of violation of their rights; that’s why I’ve decided to come and join them today.”

The award-winning actress made these statements while leading the Nyeri march on January 26, 2024.

This march aims to raise awareness about recent murders in Kenya and calls for an end to the killings. Kate has been actively involved in leading and spreading awareness about femicide.

The Nyeri march precedes the one in Nairobi, scheduled for January 27, 2024, with several other celebrities advocating for it.

Brenda Wairimu, Celestine Gashuhi, Foi Wambui, and Bryan Kabugi are among those actively promoting and spreading the word about the femicide march on their social media platforms.

The femicide march, sponsored by Feminists in Kenya, USIKIMIE, and Zamara, began in Nyeri and is set to continue in different cities tomorrow, including Nairobi.
