Seems they have people in wazua.. The rest of the story has been removed..

Never the less, i must say the grammar and flow of our journalists is very wanting.. especially in print media.. sadly the guys doing blogs have copied this style of writing..

Pathetic

Once in high school during a weekend challenge event they invited a pastor from Day Star University to preach to us. He said many things, but there is one I have never forgotten to this day. "Don't do in private what you cannot do in public. And don't do in public what you cannot do in private." With a few exceptions such as landing and going to the bush, this statement is very wise. And it's so much more worth adhering to in this information age. Poor fellow.

smile misquoted? May be he or the reporter meant those figures in the thousands, yaani 500,000, 200,000, etc. Still, we shouldn't be thinking for them. Don't they proofread whatever they write?
