Senator Hezena gets restraining orders against her ex-lover after breakup

In a ruling by Magistrate Festus Terer, the court barred Musa from assaulting, threatening, harassing, or otherwise interfering with the Senator’s well-being. 

He is also prohibited from using her name, image, or likeness for personal or commercial purposes, publishing any information about her, or accessing her home or workplace until further orders are issued.

Through lawyer Danstan Omari, Senator Lemaletian told the court that the two were only engaged in a Samburu customary courtship, which she later revoked. 

She emphasized that no dowry was paid, and that the Ksh.100,000 “ropiyani e loip” he gave was merely a token under Samburu tradition — an amount she has since returned in full.

The Senator claims that the harassment has seriously impacted her safety, privacy, and professional reputation. 

She accuses Musa of issuing death threats, committing acts of physical violence, and spreading false claims that they are married. 

She further alleges that he once assaulted her, causing a nosebleed, and has used social media platforms and bloggers to damage her reputation, thereby threatening her safety and political career.

The matter will be heard inter partes on September 22, 2025, when both parties will present their arguments on whether the orders should be extended or modified.
