• Karen Nyamu has been criticised for licking lollipop incident at Raila Odinga's State House event
• A viral video captured the nominated senator walking with a lollipop at Raila's African Union Commission chairmanship bid launch
• The lollipop moment sparked debate on decorum at official events, with many deeming it inappropriate

On August 27, during the launch of Raila Odinga’s bid for the African Union Commission (AUC) chairmanship at State House, Karen Nyamu stirred significant outrage with her behaviour.

The event, attended by President William Ruto, other heads of state, former presidents, diplomats, and government representatives, was a prestigious affair.

However, Nyamu drew attention for an entirely different reason.

Was Karen Nyamu's behaviour inappropriate?

In a video that quickly went viral, Nyamu was seen walking around the event with a lollipop in her mouth.

She greeted attendees while casually licking on the lollipop, an act that many netizens have criticised as unprofessional and inappropriate for such a formal gathering.

The image of a senator at a significant diplomatic event indulging in what is typically considered childlike behaviour has sparked widespread debate, with many deeming it embarrassing and out of place.

This incident has added to the growing list of public controversies surrounding Nyamu, further fuelling discussions about the conduct and decorum expected from public officials at important national and international events.
