Spot on. Like I said in a post on the Eastleigh issue, when we put other considerations before professionalism in making security appointments, we systematically dismantled a system that was working. Who remembers Kenya security apparatus at one point being ranked the best in Africa, comparable to Mossad?

It is not a problem requiring brute KDF or GSU strength, we need intel, people who can interpret the intel and advise accordingly.

...3 dead soldiers doesn't mean Garissa is burning stop being sensational. That town has always had insecurity issues since kitambo only this time its being reported. The C in C and all those that he delegates the duties to secure this country should be serious about our safety before things get out of hand!


Really?? from what I saw Garissa was literally burning.

....to a point where the security personnel feel so unappreciated and they do profiling when sending officers to dnager areas, it's appalling.....in Baragoi the dead police officers were evidently profiled for mission impossible!!!

These are problems that have incubated for a long term only now coming to a volatile eruption. Deep seated corruption and destruction of institutions by the Kenyatta, Moi and even Kibaki's regimes ensured that our security organs lost competence ..we can't pay the police a reasonable wage, so for very long they took bribes and allowed criminal enterprise to take root; the state allowed the border between Kenya and Somalia become porous, they can't manage refugees within our borders. Corruption at the Home (Home?) office started selling Kenya's citizenship for a song, end result we have so many undesirables living in our midst doing illegal activity unchecked. They are too many, they have lived here illegally for too long, we can't track them all now.
But leaving Somalia to be a lawless state next door would have been a worse mistake, with more catastrophic consequences in the future.

give due credit, baba uk and baba gidi did a very good job as far as security was concerned, they might have rubbed a number of people the wrong way and in wrong parts - but heck, insecurity was never allowed to sink this low.

somalia has been lawless from the early 90's

Bila. They wrecked Kenya's economy. Security is heavily dependent on a healthy, thriving economy to be reliable. Busting a few people's nuts is not a good security strategy. No credit is due to them. It's like robbing a household and then passing the family members a chapati each to pacify them. Angalia the big picture boss.
