Nominated Senator Karen Nyamu has threatened to lobby for the ban of Aluta Sundays in all Nairobi Clubs.

According to the youthful senator, the overnight program that always runs from Saturday Night into Sunday is allegedly spoiling many youths.

The Senator told Club owners to consider her statement as a public notice as she moves to stop the 24-hour party life in Nairobi.

"Kuna kitu inaharibu vijana hapa Nairobi inaitwa Aluta. Hio fom mi ndio nitaichoma. Club owners this is your notice," Nominated Senator Karen Nyamu said. 

Nyamu’s statement has elicited mixed reactions among partygoers and business people – many arguing that she is about to spoil a good thing.

Media personality Joyce Gituro weighed in on the conversation, welcoming Senator Nyamu’s move.

A few weeks ago, Gituro went viral while discussing ‘Aluta’ Sundays with her son Jakes Nyanjom.

Aluta Sundays – a Sunday service that kicks off at 6 am has become a popular spot for revelers around Nairobi Clubs.

The Idea first originated from Loft Lounge owners before it was quickly absorbed by other Nairobi clubs.

The program takes care of reggae lovers who don’t want to go home on Sunday morning after a proper Saturday, night out.

Aluta Sundays was inspired by the Jamaican culture, which sees revelers going to clubs as early as 6 am for endless hours of reggae music.
