Why I admire (Happy)Edah Atieno from Tujuane.

 Edah Atieno, the new trending topic in Twitter Facebook and any major sites. She has captured the attention of many after her date in a Tujuane episode. She has recieved a lot of harsh critism and uproar especially from kenyans of her similar gender and though they may be justified to do it I feel that the main reason they are subconsciously angry at her is for telling the truth.

The only thing bad about Edah Atieno was her accent. Everything else she said or acted out was a  mirror of what MOST women are. Most Kenyan women or rather African Women to be specific. Edah did not dilly dally around her date or beat about the bush, she put everything that her and the entire population of African women want and desire from a man.
Women want a stable man, a secure man, a man in control. A man who she knows has her back and in the event that she cant pay her rent she knows he will. Women want a man who will spoil her and treat her nice, who will satisfy her infinite wants. And that;s all Edah said. All women are programmed  like that and that is why its really hard for a women to settle for less than she values herself.

Allow me to quote the words of Maina Kageni during an interview he once had "Mwanamme ni Effort na Mwanamke ni Standard". Women find it hard to settle for less than their own standard and that's just why most women who are well accomplished in life stay unmarried and the ones who do marry don't last long in it.
Another woman would have played nice but deep inside knowing that Rick wouldn't last with her for more than a day. The guy was shy, shaking and still in school. What Edah said was the hard truth that most African women think and look for in a man. So what I admire from her is that she never lied, she never pretended. She put everything on the table and showed the reality that really is our Kenyan Women. 
I would rather have a girl who put everything on the table than one who plays around with you then leaves you when she gets a better guy. 
And to imagine people go to the point of digging through her KCSE grades to show she is not worth it? A woman's true value is how she values herself, her standard. Thus bringing me back to the statement Mwanamme ni Effort na Mwanamke ni Standard. Her only crime was insisting to speak in english saying Kiswahili is her mothertongue.... like really? Girl u have no African heritage? So what does Luo become to you? But other than that, stop hating on her.... especially women because she is the ugly reflection of what  african women truly are.
