But for Nairobi Diaries actress Mishi Dora who shared her agonizing past prefer to have her leg tattooed to hide the scares of the tortured she underwent some years back.
Taking to her Instagram account, the mother of two has narrated how a man she knew shot at her, ran over her and drove off leaving her for dead.
“My name is Mishi Dorah as you all know me… and I’m one hell of a strong woman… I’m not voiceless and I’m a fighter… this has been my journey since 2014…. I’ve tried getting this off my head for the longest time.. but I keep having flashbacks and nightmares of what was done to me on that day… this man was out here to kill me… he shot at me… ran me over by a car and drove off leaving me for dead..with multiple pelvic bone fractures ..torn ligament and a broken left hip bone….tried killing me again at the hospital and I ended up in an ICU” she wrote
She added that she has been in court since 2014 but she hasn’t found any justice.
“Been to court since December 2014… but until now no justice has been served… in 2015… he approached me with a bribe of 500,000 kshs.. so we can settle the matter out of court… which I turned down and even had to relocate coz my life and my babies were at risk…those that know me the scars I have all over my body… I’ve embraced them”She narrated.
The mother of two went ahead to narrate how she got bullied.
“I even had to tattoo my legs(which most of the people think it’s for beauty) just to cover the scars there coz I got bullied most of the times that I posted pictures and the scars showed,”she explained.
“I haven’t seen this guy for the longest time till last night… he came where I was and said hello to people and was even having a good laugh.. he looked at me as if we’ve never met before… I was so scared… I was sweating and shaking all over my body.. my heart was racing… it hurts me seeing people that I know twisting the story and mingling with the guy.. even went ahead and made me the topic of discussion as they sip their whiskey… and expect me to be cool about it.. ??? Noo… I’m not a coward… and I’m gonna speak about it… I have a voice… My question is .. if I’m a public figure and I can’t get justice .. how many people are out there dying in silence.. no one to speak for them… no one to fight for them”
She has just released a picture of the man behind the accusation but we are yet to get his side of the story and keep you updated.

I have a voice.. and I’m here to tell you that I’m nolonger scared.. all I want is justice… nothing more … you can go ahead and do your worst.. I’M NOLONGER SCARED!!! #AllINeedIsjustice”
