Wednesday, July 16, 2025 - Former nominated Senator Gloria Orwoba has stirred fresh controversy after making explosive allegations against fellow politician Karen Nyamu.
In a candid revelation following her recent defamation case loss against Senate Clerk Jeremiah Nyengene, Orwoba alleged that some women are repeatedly selected for lucrative foreign trips not on merit, but due to personal relationships with powerful male officials.
She specifically mentioned Karen Nyamu, questioning the criteria used
for her frequent inclusion in international delegations.
“Is Karen Nyamu an expert in everything?” Orwoba asked,
pointing to Nyamu’s numerous official foreign engagements.
According to Orwoba, her refusal to comply with similar expectations cost her crucial opportunities during her tenure in the Senate.
She claims she was deliberately sidelined and excluded from
committees and international forums after rejecting advances from high-ranking
parliamentary figures.
Orwoba, known for her unapologetic activism and advocacy for
women’s rights, said many female leaders in both the Senate and National
Assembly are suffering in silence, coerced into compromising situations in
exchange for career advancement.
