Outrage grows after woman stripped in broad daylight
Kenya鈥檚 President Uhuru Kenyatta has ordered the authorities to re-register all motorbike taxi operators following public outrage over an attack on a woman in her car in the capital, Nairobi. A video showed the woman - from Zimbabwe - being stripped of her clothes and groped as she screamed for help.It is believed taxi drivers, locally known as boda-bodas, descended on the woman's car to intimidate her after an accident. Earlier on Tuesday, women held street protests in the capital, Nairobi, to condemn the incident and other cases of sexual and gender-based violence. Mercy Juma attended the protests. She's been telling Paul Bakibinga what was behind the growing anger.
