Who is a worse tribalist in terms; the educated or the non-educated?
I was attending a class facilitated by a 'University lecturer' and some of the omments were actually tribal

Sample this:
So and so, a Luo .... bla bla
So and so, a kikuyu .... bla bla
so and so, a ugandan .... bla bla
so and so, the only honest -(tribe) i know

What are these tags meant to achieve, what does it tell about the lecturer, what is the impact on the listeners?

The good thing is that there was a round of protest when the last stament( examples above) was made. I happenned to be the only participant in the class from the 'dishonest tribe'.
I however felt encouraged by the protest though and the tide may be retreating on tribalist.
What would you have done were you in my shoes?
I care!
