American TV Presenter on the Spot for Claiming Pregnant Kenyan Women Do Not Have Voting Rights

American TV presenter Emily Rose Compagno has angered Kenyans on Twitter (KOT) after claiming that pregnant women in Kenya do not have voting rights.
Compagno made the comment while giving her views about women’s voting rights on the “Outnumbered” show on FOX News TV which she co-hosts.
She noted that celebrities in the US should stop complaining about Americans having limited voting rights, arguing that it is worse in countries like Kenya where she claimed that expectant mothers are not allowed to get out of their houses.
“The insularity of these celebrities is so asinine … it’s so nauseating because these comments are totally delusional, that we have less voting rights here,” Compagno remarked.
She continued: “What about in Kenya, where pregnant women can’t leave the house so they absolutely have no constructive right to vote, or in Oman, where women have to vote as their husbands do or risk death.”
Her comments rubbed up Kenyans online the wrong way, and are now demanding that she withdraws and apologizes to Kenyans for her false statement.
@ElijahRottok tweeted: “Dear @FoxNews I am appalled at the insinuation by this panelist on your show that pregnant women in Kenya don't have voting rights. This is not true and unfortunate.”
@paulinenjoroge wrote: “😳 @FoxNews!
What is this? What is @EmilyCompagno saying? That in Kenya pregnant women can’t leave the house so they have no right to vote? What does she imagine our country is like? That statement is incorrect, misleading, condescending, and should be withdrawn.”
@EstherPassaris said: “@EmilyCompagno Pregnant women in Kenya are allowed to leave the house. Pregnant women in Kenya can vote. Pregnant women get priority on voting lines. Pregnant women do give birth free of charge under the government #lindamama program. Retract your statement.”
@KenMureithi quipped: “@FoxNews selling fake News about Kenya. The level of ignorance in the US is worse than I thought it was.”

Americans are the most starved people of news worldwide. They are held hostage by the government through the mainstream media. No wonder they have resulted to mauling each other with guns daily.

Our women in kenya move freely without fear of anything. They also feed well when they are pregnant not to bear maggot kids like Emily.

Does Emily look like she has any academic depth? She is a shallow as shallow can get. Her statement about Kenya’s pregnant women were out of taste and demeaning.

Why are we acting like we are so protective about our cherished values and rights,when spousal abuse is rampant in the country,and hardly any presenter notices? If a Kenyan presenter had spread the same falsehood in Kenya would it elicit the same reaction?Or is it worse when a foreigner says it?
I hardly doubt if the presenter even believes what she said.It was just done for shock value unfortunately at the cost of misinformation about Kenya. Iam not saying that what she did is right,but let's not overreact.

Geography was never taught in her elementary school. She can’t read a map because she is Google wired and she talks through Microsoft hardware. She doesn’t have to possess brains when tools tell her what to say.

Having a lot of Botox pumped in two small breasts, buying grueling facial surgeries with a butcher knife and wearing excessive mud make up dumped in the face is not beauty. She probably got shots of Botox done in her butt chicks too!
These painful medical art procedures makes Emily bitter with our fine looking pregnant sisters all over Africa. Our women are naturally beautiful with good genetics.
