The former presenter who also worked atย Maiyan Radio, further hinted that she will be eyeing a seat in the United States Congress in the future.

However, Kantet dismissed their sentiments and explained that her family and friends benefitted from her move and the US had more opportunities to explore.

“Thank you for keeping me busy today on my Twitter profile. So am out here with a hot chocolate mug following comments. Your bitterness seems to override reason. This is precisely why Kenya is not developing! If such people are the voters,” she hit back.

According to her LinkedIn, Nashipae oversees a foundation among the Maasai and Samburu communities that campaigns against Female Genital Mutilation (FGM).

She is also a human rights activist with an interest in the rights of Maa women from her community.

The crusader is also the founder of The WE Foundation which focuses on empowering the girl child and the women in society.

“Nashipae, commands a large following and is acknowledged by both the young and the old in the Maasai and Samburu communities and beyond. She is an Anti-FGM Crusader and aย champion of the Maa women’s rightsย in her community.

“The WE Foundation shares her vision of empowering the girl child consequently the women in society. This time round going a mile further to include education for both the old and the young in the society,” her LinkedIn profile reads.
