Kenyans bash rachel Ruto for alleging mutilaed bodies found are victims of femicide
First Lady Rachel Ruto has broken her silence on the gruesome discovery of mutilated bodies in the Kware area of Mukuru kwa Njenga slums in Embakasi South, Nairobi.
Through her social media account on X, Rachel described the incident as deeply heartbreaking.
“The discovery of the mutilated bodies of young women dumped in Kware, Nairobi, is deeply disturbing and heartbreaking. Each of these women was someone’s child, sister, or friend, and no one should undergo such cruelty. Violence against women must end in our country. Our condolences and prayers go out to the families of the victims. No parent should ever have to bury their child, especially under such circumstances.”
A statement by the DCI revealed that on the second day of the body retrievals, a dog carcass was discovered among the bodies found.
On the first day of the search, nine female bodies were discovered.
“Three bags contained female body parts as follows: the first bag had two legs from the knee downwards, the second bag contained two body parts, one from the neck to the waist and another from the head to the waist, and the third bag contained a lower limb from the thigh to the knee. For the other two bags, one contained a dog carcass while the other was full of garbage,” DCI posted via their X account.
This is how Kenyans responded:
It starts when the police abduct Kenyan Citizens in broad daylight while not wearing their uniforms or identifying themselves. How do we then tell the difference between the police or if those are criminals abducting Kenyans? So Mama Rachel, start by prosecuting police abductors.

Dear Mrs. Ruto,
Ever wondered why there is so much apathy and frustration in Kenya today? Why people don’t want to hear from this administration?
It’s because of messages like what you just wrote. Or had someone write. Or had ChatGPT write. They ring hollow and lack sincerity.…
