Nairobi businesswoman and political figure Agnes Kagure has broken her silence on the wave of attacks and old fabricated stories being used to discredit her.
Through a post on her X handle on October 8,2024, Kagure acknowledged the backlash she’s been dealing with lately, suggesting it’s a sign that her growing influence is making certain people uncomfortable.
“Ever since I hinted at my political ambitions, I’ve been seeing all sorts of attacks and stories that date back as far as 1901—aha!” she wrote.

Known for her extensive work in women’s empowerment and youth development, she has become a respected figure in Nairobi’s political circles.

As the political season heats up, Kagure’s resilience and determination to push forward make her a standout figure.
While the scrutiny and attacks may continue, her recent comments show she’s more than prepared for the challenges ahead.
She’s in this for the long haul, and it’s clear she’s ready to take on anyone who tries to stand in her way.
