A Kenyan X user is facing online backlash after he asked for the “other side of the story” in connection with the alleged defilement of a 2-year-old girl by a 23-year-old man.

Kenyan human eight activist Njeri Wa Migwi had shared that the suspect was arrested and arraigned in court on Wednesday, November 11, 2026.

According to her, the minor is currently fighting for her life at the Kenyatta National Hospital in Nairobi. 

Commenting on the post, Watetu said he would be labeled a misogynist if he ask for the other side of the story.

"If I ask for the other side of the story I'll be called a misogynist.” 

The comment prompted swift condemnation, with some users accusing him of being a pedo.
