She said that someone with a name as big as Sheebah coming out is huge. According to the MP, the reason this vice has persisted in public offices is the fear of most victims coming out. This is due to the fear of judgment and stigmatization.
Nambooze likened Sheebah to a Kenyan female politician known as Wangai Mathai who was raped by goons. She openly came out and exposed the truth about her rape.
“What that girl did is so heroic. Someone as big as Sheebah is very big and the reason why this vice has persisted in public offices is because of the silence of the victims. She reminds me of a Kenyan female politician called Wangai Mathai. Mathai was raped by goons sent by her political opponents. Despite being advised to say that she was only sexually assaulted, she refused. She saw it fit to expose these shameless men,” Nambooze said.
The politician added that a person who decides to rape Sheebah means that he has terrorized countless helpless women in his locality.
Furthermore, she hit out at those saying that these girls who are raped dress indecently. Nambooze says that she tries to dress as a decent Ugandan woman according to the current situation.
Apparently, she can’t wear a gomesi however much she likes it and then board a plane to go and represent Uganda abroad.
“I want to ask these men who say that these girls should be raped because of indecent dressing, don’t you have young daughters at home who even don’t wear panties. Kids who you can even shower when their mothers are not around, do you rape them too? So, if you’re saying that they dress in skimpy outfits, do you want us to dress our goats, dogs and pigs, and anything female,” a furious Nambooze questioned.
She further said that they should give such culprits a heavy and severe punishment so that others learn from them. Nambooze also added that they are going to take on this matter as women MPs in Parliament.
For now Nambooze said that Sheebah needs counseling and not judgment. This is because she could be undergoing trauma now.
