And the way the kavirondoans (joluo) boast about their expensive English suits and German automobiles. One would think they discovered Mercedes and suits. Kumbe they were walking naked just the other day. Shame!

What kind of hateful observation is this? Some people here are undercover tribalists who can’t hide their spite for some tribes.

Shame? Who amongst the Kenyan people wasn't walking naked? I remember there were boys in my boyhood who didn't wear shorts but had long shirts.Shorts were meant for school.

Yaani one can't make a factual statement without being branded a tribalist?

I think mwafrika has a mental problem. How could one mzungu make 20 africans to happily carry him around for hundreds of miles though the african bush as he explored Africa?

This is why i respect Idi Amin Dada, the conquerer of the British Empire, for giving mzungus a taste of their own medicine and restoring dignity to africans. They had to kneel before him and carry him around. Amin akikohoa mzungu anaitika. But because it was so embarrassing for mzungu they started calling him a buffoon who was mentally unstable. Mzungu couldn't believe the turn of events.

There's little reason to believe the interpretation you're giving to the picture is necessarily true for all times and all contexts.

Finally, I think we should reexamine what we mean by 'mental problems'. A person with a mental problem can't be happy. If Africans were happy to do a task that you find annoying, why do you think it's your prerogative to assume that you have a better mental status?

In this case I believe that you're actually the one with a mental problem. A serious one at that if you consider how you're projecting values with authority and violence...
