Concerned citizens raise their voice following discovery of mass shallow graves in Mandera

By Nepjournal team:
Seven months after shallow mass graves were discovered in Lanbib area of Wajir County, a similar discovery was made yesterday in Mandera.
Among the bodies recovered was the one of Isnina Mohamed, a mother of two who was abducted on December 3, 2015 from her tea kiosk in Mandera town.
Condemnation for the extra judicial killings have been pouring in ever since with people from all walks of life calling for an immediate end to the heinous acts.
On twitter, several hashtags are currently trending including #
EnforcedDisappearancesKE, #
StopKillingSomalis.
Many argue such killings foster the very radicalization and violent extremism that Kenya is purporting to fight.
In the so called fight against radicalization, more have been radicalized as a result. #StopKillingSomalis

There are feelings of blanket condemnation and target.
This is not a war on terror, it’s war against humankind. War against a community. #StopKillingSomalis — Ahmed Mohamed™ (@asmali77)

And what did the police say about the whole incident?
Inspector General @JBoinnet denies there’s a mass grave in Mandera, admits to the discovery of a woman’s body. #StopKillingSomalis

Is this a government policy?
@MohaJichoPevu @HonAdenDuale I totally agree. I have no doubt that is the official policy of the jubilee govt to kill extrajudicially

MOURNING THE ONLY PRINCIPAL I KNEW

By Dr.Paul Bundi Karau I arrived at Kanyakine High School on 18th February 1999 a small village boy. I had never been to a boarding school, and certainly this is the furthest from home I had ever gone. The boys who were assigned to escort me to Mungania dorm looked at my stunted height and loudly wondered how I would survive in Beast's school.  "Who is Beast?" I asked in bewilderment. "You will know." Musyoki answered curtly. It didn't take me long to know who Beast was.

I ran along the pavement, and came upon a mighty man, who appeared to be adjusting his trousers. He yanked his belt and thrust one whip towards me. I had encountered Beast himself. He was tall, imposing, burly and endowed with a thunderous voice that could re...

Political Tumbocrats

*Political Tumbocrats* A political tumbocrat is a person who hangs around elected leaders to satisfy her/his personal greed. Tumbocrats sees a leader as a demigod whom they worship. The r bootlickers and sycophants of the highest order. Their work is to defend leaders and cheat public that something is happening. A tumbocrat has no values or morals. A tumbocrat is not interested with common good but personal good. A tumbocrat has no vision but appetite for being near high table of power  and feeding on crumbs.   Tumbocrats are greatest obstacles to development in our country. They protect the corrupt and shield the bad governance in so far as they get something to fill their tumbos. They are good and articulate in arguments but they lack the moral authority because they don't value truth. Every political leader is surrounded by tumbocrats. They are the noise makers in social media and around leaders defending them. They peddle lies en create propagandas . They confuse the publ...
