Please take note

Police have warned motorists there may be a heavy traffic jam and
closure of some major roads in Nairobi tomorrow (Wednesday) morning when the
military stages a full parade at Uhuru Park for rehearsal for the promulgation of the new constitution slated for Friday.

Police say they will close part of Uhuru Highway, Haileselasie Avenue,
Kenyatta Avenue and Valley Road as the military hardware rolls into and out of the park.

The closure will take place between 3 am and 10 am. A similar closure on
Sunday caused a major traffic jam and tomorrow being a working day the
situation may be worse.

Among the equipment to be displayed include, troop carriers, armored
personnel carriers, tanks, mobile hospitals and radar communicators.

Nairobi Area traffic boss Patrick Lumumba has asked for cooperation from
motorists and those who have no use of their cars to leave them at home.

It's not so much about military might, but more about an elaborate ceremony. It will help people change their mind-set from the old way of doing things to the new.... as written in the new constitution.

No wonder this will be done on a Friday, then we go off for the weekend and come Monday morning, it will be a new dawn; especially in government offices.

It's the same reason we do weddings and funerals....

yes really @kizee....u must be very OLD.....no wonder the attitude...:)
