Abductions: Police setting a dangerous precedent
Inspector-General of Police Douglas Kanja.
Deadly trend: As police deny any knowledge of abductions, Joseph Macharia is warning that they are setting a dangerous precedent. “The public may eventually start resisting and attacking those who try to forcibly seize civilians. This will create nasty scenes and possible deaths as the abductors fight back. This deadly trend that must be stopped,” he demands. His contact is [email protected].

Vaccination: The idea of the government prioritising a livestock vaccination campaign from January instead of ensuring the complete migration from the NHIF to SHA/SHIF is suspect, says Ruth Gituma. She poses: “Has there been any danger of an outbreak of foot and mouth disease or have we become the guinea pigs to test any new vaccines by the multinationals?” Her contact is [email protected].

Legacy: The snarl-up on the Nairobi-Nakuru highway that made motorists and passengers spend a cold night in the open has Dr Kennedy Miyoro Mochabo reflecting on what this means for President William Ruto. Says he: “Dualling the highway would be the best legacy for him. Nothing else, including trying to mollify Mt Kenya and stay in power, will do it.” His contact is [email protected].

Income: Mombasa resident Carey Yiembe wants to know just how much the Kenya Railways Corporation, a government entity, has made from leasing its key station at the coast for use by some car dealers for many years. “I’m curious to know the terms of this deal, how much money has been paid so far and how it has been spent. Can KR, please, shed some light on this?” His contact is [email protected].

New Year: With the year just coming to an end, it’s that time again when people make resolutions, says F. Mukembu. They, he adds, often formulate the key objectives they hope to accomplish. “There is a need for introspection to see what to amend and also set some realistic goals for the New Year and make them happen. I wish you all a prosperous year 2025.” His contact is [email protected].
Have an achievable day, won’t you!
