According to justice Koome committing a person to civil jail for failing to pay a debt is against the international covenant on civil and political rights now part of the Kenyan law.

'An order of imprisonment in civil jail is meant to punish ,humiliate and subject the debtor to shame and indignity due to failure to pay a civil debt'she argues.

Now, how else will one get paid ,if the law is against civil jail for those who fail to pay their debts?

Go! Go! Go! Justice Koome! This together with the soon to be law Alcohol Act is music to my ears and the ears of those of my ilk. Not only will I be able to drink on credit and refuse to pay no one shall take me to jail for failing to pay my Nyama Choma bill.

@ elder..
u r just asking to be converted into past tense..butchers are the meanest guys around..and can easily dismember you..mama pimas are even worse..
so if you must drink on credit..buy your miratina(those sisal like sausages used in preparing muratina..)or better still plant your own mnazi tree.
