A Nigerian man who was caught on video assaulting a Kenyan woman confined to a wheelchair has been deported.
The foreigner, identified as Nwankwo Noko, was deported on Saturday, May 4, after physically assaulting his partner, Ms. Pauline.
Noko was captured by surveillance cameras beating up the Kenyan woman, who was confined to a wheelchair, in what appeared to be a domestic setting. In the footage, he is seen striking a helpless Pauline in the head before two other women intervene to stop the fight.
The video went viral on April 29, prompting Nominated Senator Gloria Orwoba to take action. She met with the victim on May 1, and the matter was reported at the Karen Police Station.
“It’s so difficult for people to come out, even for Pauline to sit here with me as I tell her story. She is completely traumatized from 10 years of violence,” Orwoba said.
“I have confirmed that the man seen assaulting Pauline is a foreigner and is here on a work permit. Pauline has children with the man.”
Ms. Pauline then revealed that she and her two domestic workers had been threatened by Noko if they dared testify against him in court over the incident.
