Prime Minister went on in that address to tell the fans that "we are not living in the stone age" There are better ways of resolving issues.
Another Kenyan, Clay Mugunda's take is as follows:
"Kenya: Gor Mahia Fans Must Style Up Or Be Herded Into Zoos
Clay Muganda 23 May 2011
Nairobi — From what I hear, Gor Mahia Football club does not have fans. Instead, it has an association of faithful followers who, it turns out, are more adept at causing damage than cheering on the club.
Even though I believe Pakistan has the best cricket team in the world, and that roots reggae is the best music that was ever composed, I am not a member of a Pakistan Cricket Fans Club, and neither do I belong to some reggae listening party.
That is why, whenever I go to a club and the DJ gets some irie inspiration, I leave before the warasta come in and take over the dance floor and start asking every one they see lighting up for a cigarette or a matchstick.
I have never understood why warasta always ask for matchsticks, not matchboxes or lighters, just matchsticks; and when you give them a whole box, they just take a stick or two, and give you back the box. But I digress.
Incase you did not know, there is a world of difference between warasta and Rastafarians. The former are people who smoke a brand of cigarettes called Ile Unayo, and drink a brand of liquor called Ile Imepatikana -- which they rarely pay for.
Steal the shelter
While Rastafarians tend to spend, warasta like to save. For when, I have no idea because even when it is raining, they still do not buy umbrellas, but want to shelter under other people's -- or, worse still, steal the shelter.
What I like and dislike at the same time about warasta is that they are tenacious, extreme 'survivors', even when they get the chance to lead normal lives.
It is like survival is ingrained in their DNA, and even when you go with them to a restaurant where there are parasols under which clients can sit when the sun's up, warasta will opt to sweat it out in the open -- because they are 'survivors'.
As opposed to other individuals who can do things singularly and take responsibility for their actions, warasta always seek refuge in numbers, so much so that when one of them approaches you for a matchstick and you refuse to give him, he shouts from the top of the roof how you hate them.
The reason I do not belong to any group is that I dislike herd mentality, which forms a big part of Kenyans' legendary peculiar habits.
Ignominy taking over
Kenyans' ability to exhibit a herd mentality is beyond comparison, and wherever two or three are gathered, there is a high likelihood of reason being defenestrated, and ignominy taking over as they fall over themselves to prove who the biggest ignoramus of them all is.
By the time we realise that we are the biggest enemies to (our own) development, we start engaging in blame game and chest-thumping, and the few voices of reason get drowned in the resultant noise as we all talk at cross-purpose and deny everything, as if some unidentified terrestrial body is what caused the damage.
A recent case in point is the destruction of property by Gor Mahia Football Club fans, who are still insulting our sensibilities by trying to blame the match official and not admitting that they were on the wrong.
How and why do Gor Mahia Football Club hooligans, who have a false pride in calling themselves followers, get away with all the foolishness any time they feel that a match is not going their way?
Are these Gor Mahia yobs so important to Kenyan football that if they were stopped from entering stadiums Kenyan football would die, or Fifa would take disciplinary action against KPL, KFF, FKL -- or whatever toothless body that mismanages football in this country?
Granted, Gor Mahia is the country's most successful football club, having won, way back in 1987, some continental cup which no other club in the country has ever won, but for how long will innocent motorists, match officials and fans of other clubs continue to suffer because Gor Mahia followers do not like a decision made by the referee?

The world over, football clubs win and lose matches, but according to Gor Mahia followers, their club cannot lose, and when it is losing, it is not because the other team is better, or that Gor is playing badly, but because the referee is favouring the other side.
And what better way to make him understand his infractions than by stoning motorists and damaging the stadium?
Spasms of denial
After they have done that, they go into spasms of denial, and start telling us about its 'followers' while KPL/KFF/FKL officials engage in chest-thumping and tell us how the rowdy fans will not go unpunished. A few months later, they go on the rampage, and nothing is done.
It is not only wrong, but also very annoying that a club that touts itself as a shining example of success should be supported by a herd of animals that cannot reason, and see that their collective stupidity is not only killing the club, but football in general. In order to save football and Gor Mahia, these animals may have to be culled."

I doubt the PM disagrees.
