Down memory lane.....
The year is 1997. Politically-instigated ethnic clashes have hit Molo, Elburgon and other areas in the RV. Before long a comrade from Egerton university is killed while at home.
The comrades respond the way they know how. Through riots. During the confrontation with cops, a comrade is killed by a police bullet.
The following day, KU students riot in support of their Egerton comrades. Once again, cops are called in to quell the riots and two comrades are shot dead. It would have ended there were it not for one Prof. George Eshiwani, the then Vice Chancellor. He was a Moi sycophant but had a heart in his chest.
On being told that two of his students have been killed, the VC hit the roof. He summoned the Kasarani OCPD who was in-charge to his office and dialed state house. By the time he replaced the phone receiver, Kasarani police had a new OCPD, OCS, deputy OCPD and CID boss.
When the OCPD and his anti-riot brigade went back to the station, they were all arrested. 11 of them were charged with murder. The trial took years with the cops languishing in remand.
Why all this history ? Today in the morning, 11-year old Stephanie Moraa was playing at their balcony in Mathare. A bullet hit and killed her on the spot. The acting interior CS insists police are not using live bullets. Lets not even talk of the many guys being flushed out of their house and tortured badly by GSU. Their crime being living in the wrong places.
Just wish we had an Eshiwani inside Uhuru's government. Only one who has a heart inside their chest.
who was that OCPD? I don't seem to see a change in OCPD at that station during that year, or I might be looking at different info.

Politics is just things to keep the people divided and foolish and put your trust in men and none of them can do nothing for you...

All elected ODM leaders should take this opportunity to come out and address their constituents. I would love to see a press conference of Anyang' Nyongo, Okoth of Kibra, Ongwae of Kisii and all other level headed ODM leaders coming together to talk about the future for their people. They are the elected leaders of their people and the people are not Raila's property. Come out and address your people. Raila is not president but you are elected MPs, Governors, MCAs and you must have a message for the people.

This is creating unnecessary tension in the Country. I think he is planning to call for mass action and demos, then force for a coalition government. Hope is not a strategy

Or he wants to be arrested to legitimize his claim. This is the time to do a Besigye on this man, not to arrest him but to make sure he does not leave the house. Elections have ended. There is no going to Kibra to hold rallies. There is nothing good that can come out of a rally held in Kibra at this time.
