We live in Nairobi and have experienced something very different from what we are reading in the media.
NB: All the times I have been attacked in Nairobi, I never report the matter to the police. The police are worse than the thugs on the streets of Nairobi.
The only time I reported was after being Bus-jacked at midday. We were left in Kangemi but told to report at Muthangari. We did exactly that. They stole 100 shillings from me but I reported they had taken 29 thousand which I had withdrawn to pay my employees. Another guy said 14k etc.
Six weeks later, the same group hijacked a Shuttle but were mowed down by Muthangari police officers.
These guys work in cahoots with police and even hire guns from them. The police record amounts stolen by thugs in order to know what cut to expect. That's why its good to report exponential amts to ensure a shortfall in tallying.
On being 'short charged', the police usually hit back in revenge on the next mission.
Would you bother report to such officers? So, how do you account for unreported cases? Does that mean when cases are not reported, then no crime was committed?
If you've been to Nairobi and later to Kigali, Kampala or Dar of late, you would not dare say Nairobi is safer.
Go overdrive in purchasing the goods when there's blood on the streets, expecially if the blood is your own
