MP Peter Salasya has responded with fiery remarks to controversial statements made by blogger Andrew Kibe regarding his interest in city women, specifically Huddah Monroe. The exchange has sparked considerable debate on social media and among his followers.
On September 8, 2024, Salasya took to his social media platforms to address Kibe’s comments, which suggested that men from rural areas, like Salasya, are not suited to date women from urban settings. Kibe’s remarks implied that men from the countryside lack the sophistication to handle city girls, insinuating that such relationships are doomed to fail.
Salasya’s response was direct and assertive. “People say that men from the village shouldn’t go for city girls because we supposedly can’t handle them. I want to tell Kibe that even we can attract city girls. It’s not just you who can manage to get beautiful women,” Salasya declared. His rebuttal underscores a broader societal shift where traditional boundaries and stereotypes about class and relationships are being challenged.
The MP did not stop there. He further elaborated on his perspective by emphasizing the evolving dynamics of relationships. “You might be speaking your truth, but now I’m ahead of you. We’re the locals, and you’re just a broiler. A broiler needs to connect with a local to make things right. The era of fearing these high-maintenance women is over. Let them be,” Salasya asserted in another post. By using the term “broiler” to describe Kibe, Salasya highlighted a perceived disconnect between Kibe’s urban-centric viewpoint and his own more inclusive, progressive stance on relationships.
Salasya’s comments reflect a growing trend of challenging outdated stereotypes about rural and urban divides. In contemporary society, there is an increasing acceptance that people from different backgrounds can and do form meaningful relationships, defying traditional expectations.
The controversy began with Kibe’s interview on TV 47 with Betty Kyallo, where Salasya shared his views on relationships and his ideal partner. During the interview, Salasya spoke candidly about his preference for a partner who is engaged in various activities and has a busy schedule. He expressed a desire for a wife who is involved in her career and has commitments that would keep her occupied, thereby reducing the likelihood of constant communication and potential stress in their relationship.
“The Bible says a wife should be submissive. It’s both a biblical and spiritual principle; she should be obedient,” Salasya commented, further adding to the discussion about traditional values in modern relationships. He also mentioned his struggle to find a suitable partner who aligns with his rural lifestyle, contrasting it with the urban-centric expectations prevalent today.
Salasya’s statements reflect a tension between traditional values and modern relationship dynamics. His preference for a partner who lives in the village and leads a busy life underscores his belief in maintaining a balance between personal values and contemporary relationship norms.
The exchange between Salasya and Kibe has highlighted the ongoing debate about class, culture, and relationships in Kenya. It underscores a broader societal shift where individuals are increasingly questioning and redefining traditional boundaries and stereotypes.
In conclusion, MP Peter Salasya’s rebuttal to Andrew Kibe’s remarks not only defends his personal preferences but also challenges broader societal norms about relationships. His comments emphasize the changing landscape of modern relationships, where traditional stereotypes are being increasingly questioned and redefined. As society continues to evolve, discussions like these will likely play a crucial role in shaping more inclusive and progressive views on love and partnerships.
