Still on archived posts, my last article to be published on a newspaper.
Thank you for reminiscing old articles with me.
Murders, madness in elections teach Kids inhumanity
Last month was a dull month for Kenyans after losing senior citizens of this country. And it didn’t end on a better note. The IEBC and Kenyans in genral have lost another important person at a very critical moment. Chris Msando, the IEBC ICT manager, was found totured and killed on Saturday. Should people die because of an election? And even amongst ourselves as citizens, should we fight and kill ourselves over people who wine and dine in top hotels, with their families living large abroad?
What messages are our children getting from all this madness?
We cannot afford to stand divided at this time. We need unity more than ever, and if we continue showing acts of savagery amongst ourselves, then the next generation will preach murder and violence amongst themselves.
There will be no peace, no justice and they will not know and practice humanity.
