According to the lady, the incident happened because she had an unpaid rent for the month. She explained that when she pleaded with her landlord to give her more time to pay the Ksh 4,000 debt, he only allowed her one and a half months to settle it.
Feeling frustrated and misunderstood, she decided to take a stand in a dramatic way.
The lady further said that she had expected at least three months to clear her rent since she didn’t have enough money at the moment.
She explained that she couldn’t allow her landlord to hang his clothes on her line while she struggled to make ends meet.
The incident has divided opinions on social media. Some Kenyans sympathized with the lady, saying that landlords should be flexible during tough times.
Others criticized her actions, warning that she risked eviction and that such behavior was reckless. Many urged tenants and landlords to maintain good communication to avoid conflicts like this.
This incident highlights the challenges tenants face in balancing their obligations with financial difficulties, as well as the importance of mutual respect between landlords and tenants.
