Kenyan nominated Senator Karen Nyamu has sparked reactions online after a video showing her sucking her thumb during a Senate sitting surfaced on social media.
The footage, reportedly recorded during a Senate session on Tuesday, October 6, 2026, shows Nyamu seated inside the chamber while using her mobile phone.
Moments later, she appeared to put her thumb in her mouth, a scene that quickly caught the attention of social media users after the video emerged online.
The unusual moment has since gone viral, with some users finding the incident amusing and sharing jokes about the senator’s actions.
Others, however, questioned whether such behaviour was appropriate during an official parliamentary proceeding, given the formal nature of Senate sessions.
The video has continued to generate discussion online, with social media users offering different interpretations and reactions to the brief moment captured on camera.
It was not immediately clear from the footage why Nyamu put her thumb in her mouth, and she has not publicly explained the incident in the information available.
The development has once again highlighted how moments captured during parliamentary proceedings can quickly attract widespread attention on social media.
