We are devastated by the tragic loss of Rebecca Cheptegei, who succumbed to burn injuries after the boyfriend set her on fire. Another talented female athlete, full of promise, has had her life stolen due to the epidemic of gender-based violence. The deaths of Agnes Tirop, Damaris Muthee Mutua, Edith Muthoni, and now Rebecca all echo the same heartbreaking story — women murdered by the very men who were closest to them. Femicide is a crisis. We have marched, we have demanded action from state agencies, yet the killings persist. But we will not be silenced. We will continue to stand against femicide, call out the perpetrators, and demand justice for every woman whose life has been unjustly taken. #EndFemicide #EndGBV #RebeccaCheptegei
