Kenyan MP blasted for wearing Palestinian scarf in Parliament

A Kenyan MP was ordered to remove a traditional Palestinian scarf he was wearing during parliamentary proceedings on Wednesday.

Farah Maalim said he was wearing the scarf in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza, amid the fighting between Israel and Hamas.

He said Palestine “needs support of everybody in Kenya”.

But the speaker of the National Assembly ordered the MP to remove the scarf, saying the garment violated parliamentary rules.

Fellow MPs also condemned the legislator for “disrespecting” the House rules.

It comes a few days after Kenyan police briefly detained three people for participating in a pro-Palestinian meeting in the capital, Nairobi.

President William Ruto has expressed his government’s full support for Israel in the ongoing conflict.
