'Government Replies for Dummies', Second Edition.

One simply can't help but to marvel at Kenyan politicians. Their hard-wired line of response, maybe according to government issued manual 'Government Replies for Dummies', to any issue is 'deny first, ponder over the allegation, if it's the whole truth then claim that it is an attempt by your political enemies to finish you politically. If they persist, state that your tribe is being attacked, and that the tribe will fight by all means. And the options go on till somewhere down the line, the 'manual' advices the concerned to concede there is a problem but state that investigations are in progress to bring the culprits to book, and that once caught they will face the full force of the law. And then cross your fingers praying that everything will go away.

scene 1, act 1;
Minister in charge of  Security-''No we are not habouring drugs barons in.........'
.......
scene 1, act 2;
Minister in charge of  Security-' No there are no Kenyan mercenaries in Lybia......'
.......
If this honourable professor does not know what is happening within Kenyan borders, how credible is he when commenting on happenings in a distant country? Can he vouch for all Kenyans who reside in foreign countries as far as their innocence is concerned?
