Kenyan MP Calls for Law to Ban Farting on Flights

Is this what kenyan MP, are paid to do??, less than 1% of Kenyans will ever board a plane. If they are trying to regulate the alcoholic consumption let them start mtaani where the majority of kenyans are. Kenyan mps are paid for doing nothing, just oppressing mkenya. Uhuru k. Should feel very ashamed for this government

Idle woman

Only in Kenya stupid argument so pathetic

Kenyans should also be banned from picking their dirty disgusting noses in public ... its like a competition of who can dig deeper into the nose ... very disgusting ... also a law should be passed that all kenyans MUST use deodrant and toothpaste ... just walk into an elevator or matatu at 7 am in the morning and the stench of raw human sweat and stinking breath hits you in the face ... kenyans are very dirty and disgusting pple ... having said that, now lemmi go and pick my nose in the middle of the street and to keep up the KENYAN SPIRIT.

Ohlala, have we run out of pressing social problems?First of all,is this supposed to propel to an international ban?I take it that all these is aimed at adults who one way or the other are "rich" to afford but poor in hygiene...
Wow to call it asecurity issue is a big stretch.Hey its cheaper just to ride the smell out,or spray some deodorant,than implement policies that would bump up the airfare.Its the sulfur in the fart that stinks.May be a tablet could be invented ...
Of course like any one else who flies,and has relatives,and friends who fly as well,we want safe flights,but certainly farting is not an issue. I would be more concerned about patching the wing of a plane with "duct tape"before curtailing what adults should drink,or emit.
If all this fails,certainly a FART TAX will contain the matter/offense.

First taping up airplanes and now this!!!. I have to assume sniffer dogs will have to be deployed else I can see flight attendants being asked to sniff posteriors. All I can think is that right now are many villages in Kenya that are short an idiot. I suggest a village idiot repatriation act.

I wish this woman had something better to say

How will you know who has fart because most of them come out with no sound? Smell the butt of all passengers?

So MCA are being paid to discuss farting? Does she know why they crank up air conditioning on planes or what low class plane is she traveling on ? Maybe she should concentrate on sanitary improvement around the country instead of worrying about a 2 seconds fart . Bure kabisa

Three weeks ago, I was a passenger in a 20 person propeller plane ride from the coast to Wilson Airport. Someone decided to pass gas, not once but twice during the one hour flight. In such a confined claustrophobic space, I was not amused to wait out for the air to clear. That said, there are more pressing issues(no pun intended) in Kenya than regulating flatulent behavior during air travel.

She's a Dr. of what again?

She's a Dr. of what again?

This is nonsense. In stead of talking about youth unemployment and health for all and education of our children, this is the truth she puts out there. Shame on you mama.

Farting is a necessary function of nature in all living beings. This female mp is functionally illiterate even though she is being addressed as Dr., DR. IDIOT!

So immature. Farting ,really? How about you introduce a bill to fight for the vulnerable kids you can not attend primary school because their parents did not pay for PTA, activities fees? And provide Sanitary pads for teenage girls who are being shamed for going through the course? All I hear about MPS
is increase in allowance this, allowance that and so on.....

This is nonsense. In stead of talking about youth unemployment and health for all and education of our children, this is the truth she puts out there. Shame on you mama.

This is one of the damndest thing I have heard from the Kenyan politicians this year.
Dr. Lilian Achieng Gogo, please address the following first.
Corruption
Insecurity
Social injustices
Illiteracy
Teen pregnancies
Health system
Then, maybe, you can talk about farting.

Ban belching after a meal.

Idle Mind. It shows that she has nothing important to think about.

Say what? HAHA! Kenya kuna upuzi jamani!

You need to study human anatomy and physiology, whereby human beings have to eat and release for one to survive, you cannot regulate natural phenomena. Just talk of factual things affecting kenyans not farting

I keep saying the so called elite educated fellas are the most stupid pples in this world.How did she attain her DR.Yaaani anaonyesha masomo yake ilikuwa ya bure kabisa.Nonsense.The poor pple she represents cannot even fart juu they don't eat balanced diet.Stupid Africans

This is beyond embarrassing and when someone farts on a plane so what. Please focus on pressing issues
