predictable .since we never learn its a matter of when the next tanker will overturn ,then people will rush to steal fuel and get roasted like nyamachoma which isn't far from today.
Dimwits, sinai victim are yet to b buried and people can still rush to their death like that?nkt

Poverty or naivity?

Sasa where in Kenya is Matayos?It sounds like a famous rural pub!

Matayos is before you fika Busia, you ever heard of Korinda???

Very sad. Sad that we have lost lives but more sad that we dont learn. Macharia Gaitho put it blankly, we cannot blame govt. This is impunity by ordinary Kenyans who always blame politicians for impunity. I wont blame poverty either.

Ujinga ni.....

I dont even feel sorry for them. It is not poverty. It is idiocy in its highest form

tunaomba serikali iingilie kati itucompensate.

He who wants to burn should be left to burn. I hope we won't hear of taxpayers money being given for funeral expenses.

In fact their families should be surcharged for costs of removal from the burn site to the mortuary.

Na sasa will politicians book choppers and go 'mourn' there also? Then gava itoe pesa ya hospitali na mazishi? Hii maneno ya serikali lazima tuwaambie wawache kutumia ati to save face. We are giving tax money yet the hospitals dont have enough blankets, bedsheets - even beds! Priorities all wrong. This time, it's difficult for me to sympathise, maybe empathy, but they will pay the ultimate price for ignoring life lessons they ought to have learnt by now.

Mwiba wa kujidunga...

Makes sense.

I wonder if there is a middle class person doing it(stealing oil from overturned tanker).
I think it reached a level of people not believing in themselves hence have no value for life at all.

Middleclass tukijitahidi kuishi ,wanajitahidi kufa.

Life has no much meaning to them .I can bet what I saw in Londokwe this weekend , if a tanker overturns there, my people will definitely run for the dangerous fuel. That is for sure .

No water , rains have failed, for the last 3 years hence no food , relief food comes maize 2kg per every 2 weeks.Animals have started dying .


Tell me if fuel (ie Money) comes to the nearby road wont you take risk .

Not that I'm supporting the fuel thieves but I think the government needs to empower the lower income class people.

In rural areas why cant we have clear water harvesting projects and policies .Instead of people praying for tankers to overturn , they could be in their shambas doing irrigation.

Have boreholes and lined dams .


Tuneweza kuiita ujinga lakini.....
