Nominated Senator Karen Nyamu is currently under fire from netizens after she posted a video on her Instagram stories, instructing her driver to ignore traffic laws and drive recklessly while heading to parliament. In the video, shared on Thursday February 15 morning, the self-dubbed ‘bebe ya Kanairo’ is heard telling her driver, “ukiiba, lazima uibe na confidence, (when you steal, do so confidently.” The video captured the driver narrowly avoiding collisions with motorcyclists while Nyamu dismissively refers to them as “crazy.” As the pair passes a traffic police officer, Nyamu justifies their actions, stating that the driver must understand the urgency of her parliamentary attendance.
Karen Nyamu Criticized
This video has since ignited a storm of criticism on social media, with many condemning Nyamu’s behavior. Instagram user @declutterwithKwamboka reprimanded the Senator One Instagram user, highlighting accidents as a risk of breaking traffic rules, and rejecting urgency as an excuse for breaking traffic laws. The netizen cautioned against the Senator against letting power influence behavior.
“We root for you always but that was wrong Mhesh. First of all that’s how easily it is to cause an accident. Secondly, if it was urgent you would have left early. Mhesh, even Doctors rushing to perform an emergency CS operation don’t behave like that. Sio poa, don’t let power consume you “
The netizen stated.
In response to the criticism, Nyamu defended her actions, suggesting that her behavior was influenced by the culture of matatus (public minibuses) in Eastlands.
“Ni kuzoea matatu culture pale eastlando. Sithani hapo kunakuanga na power yoyote (is getting used to Matatu culture in Eastland. I don’t think there is any power there.”
Karen Nyamu responded
Another netizen Dezzinefaith reprimanded the nominated Senator’s blatant disregard of traffic laws as reckless, urging her to respect her office.
“You just mannerless and ignorant, you do not think critically before acting, generally you have nothing to lose, learn to respect title woman, senate and Nyamu.”
Dezzinefaith stated.
Nominated Senator in a swift rejoinder arrogantly dismissed the idea of learning from someone she considers beneath her.
“I will not learn any thing from someone below me”
