    I am surprised that the Human rights people complain when Mungiki sect members are killed by police, but say nothing when the sect members goes out to terrorize, violate, rape and murder Kenyans. Kudos to the Kenya police. We should all have a zero-tolerance for gangs in Kenya. Utumishi kwa wote!

    "And the draft constitution proposes abolishment of capital purnishiment- Where you can go on a killing spree kill and go to jail- Nonsense" - The draft should maintain capital offence for all who terrorise other. With the kind of comment we have here at no time should capital offence be abolished. Infact it should make sure those sentence to death are executed - only last week I was trying to convince a mob not to kill a young man for snatching a mobile
