When insecurity proves a hard nut to crack

Kenya a very beautiful and promising country is slowly being turned into a war zone. how can terrorists, enter a country in full glare of an intelligence unit in place? innocent lives are always on the line every time a blast detonates. I love Kenya but at this rate let the real government that has the public's interest at heart stand out and be counted.  We decry the level of insecurity in country. Not only will be the economy of the country be affected but also the lives of ordinary people. We don't need this kind of life. Who stole our peace?

Morality Thermostat/ Insecurity

   We are forced to begin our new year on a sad note. The level of insecurity in our country is very perturbing. The extent of senseless killings witnessed in Naivasha Yesterday is a worrying trend in terms of security for this nation. Everywhere seems insecure these days. Security of an ordinary person is so compromised that their deaths every day seems a far cry to the concerned personnel. Security management issues in Kenya seems to be falling out with the defence of this nation. Lives are falling off carelessly everyday. We can't take it given the blood shed of ordinary people.

     No one has the capacity to give a life to a fellow human being. It is even pinching to think of it that another person somewhere has the audacity to commit murder and get away with it. The innocent lives lost in cold blood has come to a shocking level and needs to be tamed if at all our government cares about the citizens. It is the responsibility of the government of Kenya to take care the well being of citizenry including providing a secure environment that can enable people to carry on their daily activities without anxiety and worry about their security. Everyone needs the peace of mind to think better and enhance the conditions of his or her life.

The families of the fallen persons are left with a void that is too big to fill. some are the sole bread winners and as a result, their families are left dis arrayed on way forward. The sleepless nights and gruelling pain notwithstanding is an immoral scar that criminals are treating citizens to. The aspect of innocent bloodshed is our main concern on this issue. Who will account to that blood.? What kind of explanation do these vicious criminals have to just the blood shed? And when they incur this kind of pain, whom are they punishing? The country's leadership needs to wake to this reality and assure the citizen's security.

The fact that their lives are well protected with an arm and a tooth doesn't mean the same thing for the common person on the street. The river between that is seen in security administration needs to improve. It is a right of every human being to be treated with dignity no matter who they are. This is a constitutional mandate that the government of Kenya have to ensure is carried out regardless of whether they like it or not. It is the duty of the state to punish crimes to protect people and country from being tossed here and there by criminal gangs. We therefore appeal to the state to ensure that the careless manner in which life is lost in the hands of crime is tamed. The immoral effect of hacking people to death is running out of hand and must be controlled regardless of the state of equipment available to provide security in the country. It is not in the interest of citizens to know whether the Government is well equipped or lacks competent security skills to control crime but all we want is a clean environment where business and life can exist without looking paranoid.

poetry; War after war

by John S. Mbiti

We are tired of scandals and cases of senselessness in society. We don't have to experience these wars of moral uprightness. Change is what we want. Just listen to this poem and think for yourselves.

We are tired of waiting for and war.
Our trees their leaves have shed
The writer has come and gone
Spring flowers have blossomed and withered
And here we are.
Still waiting for another war
Our atom bombs have rusty grown
And bald are the heads of those who made them
But we
The ugly martyrs of another war
Do not fear
We have seen wars
We know their taste is sweet 
And their smell is good 
Smoke from the guns is all we dream about


Off changing clock stick

"Choice of attention- to pay attention to this and ignore that is in the inner life. What choice to action is to the outer. In both cases, a man is responsible for his choice and must accept the consequences."
                                W.H. Auden.

OFF CHANGING CLOCK STICK

"Today is the first day of the rest of your life. So don't dwell on the past mistakes because that will get you nowhere. Instead, focus on what you can do and will do today, tomorrow, and the rest of your life, and all of the great things that will happen because of your action."
