Kenyan MP Apologizes for Sharing Parliament Fight Video
Kenyan Parliament: MP Apologizes for Sharing Video of Legislators' Fight The Kenyan Parliament witnessed an unusual event on June 5th, 2025, when Tigania East MP Mpuru Aburi offered a public apology. The apology stemmed from Aburi's sharing of a video showing a physical confrontation between two unnamed female legislators within the Parliament's precincts. The incident, though brief, sparked a discussion about decorum and conduct within the legislative body. Aburi, visibly contrite, addressed the House: "My friend asked me to share it; I am very sorry!" He expressed deep regret for his actions, stating that he did not anticipate the negative consequences of his actions. The speaker, after hearing Aburi's apology, responded: "The House forgives you. It is important that he confirms to the House that, being an elder of Njuri Ncheke, his apology is accepted." The acceptance of the apology brought a sense of closure to the unusual incident. The incident serves as a reminder of the importance of responsible social media use, even for elected officials. The swift resolution and acceptance of the apology underscore the Parliament's commitment to maintaining order and decorum.
