The past one week has seen a lot of dust blown in the media about this group. Matter of fact the dust found its way into radio and TV media. Last week was the epitome of the affair and the whole affair refuses to disappear as fast as it came. The Facebook group has in the past weeks become the hottest story on the online media with stones being cast in all directions by supporters and critics as well. According to the administrator of the page, the sole aim is to connect campus girls to wealthy men in exchange for money. And yes, the admin claims to do exactly that.
But are the page's actions replicated into real life as the administrator claims??
What is its hold in the modern society?
Are our college girls going too far or is just a mirror of the current society. The human body is considered a sacred sanctuary and by selling their bodies to these monied men, the girls are really demeaning themselves. Not everything revolves around money and there are better ways of getting the money. Oh, a great example would be looking for a job.
I believe the impatient nature of our young generation is one of the driving forces to such like actions. You will always find a rotten apple here and there but now that it has been consolidated into a movement, then we have a reason to worry. Matter of fact, the youth, beauty and glow that a girl has in campus will at the end disappear as those are the dynamics of growing old and well those same men will have moved elsewhere.
Its rather unfortunate since most of the photos appearing on the post belong to other internet users. We should all be cautious when posting our pictures online especially to those unsecured websites since they may land in the wrong hands and next minute you check you are on campus diva with a weird name like Sweet shish, exposing you to all kinds of criticisms. What makes the situation even worse is that Kenya does not have adequate laws guiding the usage of personal photos online.
This is an issue open to discussion. Others argue that the girls have
the right to do whatever they want. I do agree with that notion. Even a
thief has the right to do whatever he wants. But that does not change
the fact that stealing is wrong. No matter how much these girls try to
justify their actions, one thing remains clear and can never be changed.
Their actions are WRONG! I know this is a tough position to take but it is the truth. They know it, we know it and everyone else knows it!
