A new song to highlight domestic violence in Kenya

Focus on Africa

Available for over a year

The popular Nairobi band, Elani, has released a song and a graphic video titled, 'Sirudi' or 'I am not going back' in Swahili. It illustrates the daily reality of domestic abuse - the belittling, the humiliation and the beatings. The Âé¶¹Éç's Anthony Irungu went to meet the band. (Photo: A Kenyan victim of sexual violence.
