Actress Celestine Gachui popularly known for her role on Selena Tv show has been on the forefront fighting against gender based violence.

Calling to mentor others

Although she has no experience with gender based violence, the lass insists on stepping in to help both men and women – as this is her calling.

The past few weeks have been a real emotional ride for our country. Sadly, gender-based violence is a serious issue, affecting both men and women, from domestic abuse to femicide. That’s why @Phil_Kimemia and I are starting an initiative called #Simama. Celestine wrote on her page.

So far Celestine says she has helped a few Kenyans through her social media pages where she continues to advocate for gender based violence prevention.

We want to use our voices and influence to fight against all forms of gender-based violence. On Tuesday 6th February, we’re releasing a song, also called #Simama, as our official theme for this initiative. Please help spread the word once it’s out. It’s just the beginning – next month, we’ll be launching a podcast with the same name as part of our ongoing efforts. She went on.

Although she is still new to handling matters regarding GVB, the mother of one says she will continue the fight until society see’s change.
