Sometimes you read stuff then you remember the story of the Ostrich with its huge neck in the sand.

These are buzzwords taken off Ole Lenkus black book of funny statements

collaborators - who Kratos are these collaborators?
proactive citezens - you have just proven that the police phone line doesn't work. But pls give us another number that works. There are some video producers right now showing women being raped in matatus
people allow the gov't the weed out the militants amongst us

First, who are these militants you keep on talking about? Second, don't the police know them? Third, if they know them why not arrest them? Forth, or do you expect Washiku to do more sleuthing for you?

The Gov't has failed to provide security to its people. I don't know of anyone who's not saying Ole Lenku and Kimaiyo should go home. I didn't until I saw your posts.

You just have to stop blaming victims. That you just have to stop. Either the police heads know what they are doing or they don't.

Those buzzwords you have used are the same ones that were used during Moi's time to silence critics. This gov't must act within the law. There is no negotiating on that. This gov't must SHOW that they are doing something.

Honestly another selfie and another fake 100 killed statement will not go a long way towards solving the crisis we are in.

Kratos, you do know women are being raped in matatus. Exactly who are the collaborators in such actions?

@ngalaka, I also gave this as my suspicion a while back too. I heard that some of the drug barons in coast were not happy about any initiative to try and sensitive youths about the dangers of drug abuse. They eliminate the sheikhs who try to do this!

@ Alma what are YOUR solutions? Those are mine where are yours? Mine might not be correct according to you but am ok with it.

If i remember correctly here on wazua you're always going on about Gor hooligans and how fellow supporters should out them since they know them and that they don't have to wait for the police. How is it any different from what am saying about the terrorists?



Again i have to send you back to my earlier posts where i pointed out that terrorists must have local connections and those are the ones am calling collaborators.

Instead of attacking my contributions, give yours and lets also discuss. I still maintain if asking citizens to contribute more is the same as "blaming victims" in your vocabulary i have no apologies.

Excellent. Now let's assume all your solutions up there are fine and they would work. We are 40million plus people. Definitely such a crowd can't do those things without some guidance, some leadership of sorts. Who do you think will facilitate that? Who will ensure that lines are going through for me to anonymously report crime to the right people? Who will ensure that if the phone goes through the info will be acted upon at the right time? Who will order the army to do a Mungiki or ADDS kind of operation? Who would bring the religious, NGOs or such others on the table and buy their buy in in collectively tackling the menace? Who will offer LEADERSHIP? Is that person Washiku? Nope. Why? Because,however willing I am, the constitution that me and you voted in found it wise to place the powers to order the army on the CiC. If Uhuru was able to broker peace in South Sudan, he is warm and wise enough to call a meeting of leaders and sell his vision. All of them may not support him, but majority will. If he could convince the Heads of State of the whole of Africa, he can surely convince a few guys from the Coast. Unless you are telling me he is incompetent, is he?

@Wazuans, the problem can never be al Shabaab, or the incompetence of our government officials. These can never be the problems that are causing so many citizens and humans discomfort.

The problem is that we all have a dark compulsion that makes us create the al Shabaab and the incompetent or even helpless government officials. It is this very force that begins wars, and sets brother against brother. Right now, think about this thread; when we give our recommendations can you see their darkness. The individuals under criticism are stirred to darkness, the al Shabaab have succeeded in stirring many of us to fear and anger, we now want extrajudicial killings, and curtailing of freedoms. Darkness.

This darkness is our problem and threat, and the solution is to illuminate on it and harness it for the good of humanity.

Myself I have managed to initiate a conscious link between these dark forces within me and has started a most pleasurable and secure life. And I can see how these harnessed forces can create a new world that's peaceful and prosperous. Heaven isn't a place out there. Heaven is an attitude and a way of relating.

Let's stop running and calm down and fully reflect on these words, and you will see that they're true.

babu. He has reasons to keep bashing the government instead of offering solutions. Mutahi might just be right!!

It can't be drugs, and I agree it wasn't somali alshabab. I read the account of one of the mandera survivors in today's standard newspaper and he said that after the thugs were through with the killings, they clapped and shouted saying that "Muslims in mombasa should be allowed to pray freely". Why should somali alshabab be concerned about the goings on in mbs mosques? In mpeketoni the killers hired 2 vans in mombasa pretending to be going to bury someone in mpeketoni. And all witnesses said the killers were led by someone with white skin and speaking swahili and English (i believe hao waswahili wa mbs) who was personally carrying out the beheadings. Note also that mpeketoni happened after the killing of clerics in mbs and mandera has happened after storming of mosques. All this violence is being planned hapo mombasa, not somaliya. Omar hassan, watu wa masjid etc should tell us more.

2 years who cares who's doing it? If we are still guessing who's doing it, tuna shida kubwa sana.

What should matter to this government is that it has to stop.

Even if Mickey Mouse and Mother Teresa (rest her soul) have ganged up, it just has to stop. Hiyo ingine ni details.

We should focus on the source of the fire, not on the efficacy of the fire extinguisher.

I can see wazua evolve on this…since we can see the connection between, Mombasa, Mpeketoni & Mandera, does this means in every county in coast and North Eastern, we have mrc foot soldiers who have already profiled the local populations, patterns,etc and ready to strike at short notice as soon as there is a signal….and these signals seem to emanate from some sheks / political leaders purporting to speak for religion.
The other issue is that shabab do not have capacity to plan these atrocities from across the border. If they had, we should have been able to intercept communications. Also recognize that due to instability in Somalia, many Somalis have fled to Kenya and this sizable population is now fighting for equilibrium, whether by design or default, and they have found willing partners in the struggle, again by design or default in the name of local politicians and sheks. And does jubilee understand what the term espionage means and what needs to be done in context? can smone pliz do a power point if they still don’t get it.
