ENDANGERED LIFE OF COMRADES

STUDENT LVES AT DANGER

|By Glen Don||

Students' safety is threatened getting killed, or injured for an item not worth even a million.

Items on demand by gangs from comrades are mainly; phones and money, while those attacked and robbed in their households are attacked for other electronics and computerised gadgets.

Call for justice due to insecurity reasons 

Who should be held responsible for these heinous acts and inhumane happenings? Why should a fellow comrade attack each other, quite sad.

Address the security concern for the lives of the comrades is at risk? to hell with the attacks, to hell with the gangs

 In not less than a month, a Kisii University student survived from the hands of the gang who stabbed him in the stomach. The student, Douglas was allegedly stabbed for the money he had withdrawn from his account, he encountered the robbers who robbed him of the money he had withdrawn, which according to him was Ksh. 15000, the amount he received from the higher education loans board.

On Mashujaa day, Faith Adongo of Pwani University was stabbed in the neck using a kitchen knife and was later pronounced dead in the hospital she was rushed to. Faith recently joined Pwani University as a first-year student and has not stayed for long in the University. The reason behind Faith's attack is not known as some claim it is about the phone that the robbers demanded.

At Ramogi Institute of Advanced Technology (RIAT), the students held a demonstration of the insecurity situation within and around the campus. They are demanding that the security issue be addressed. This is after one of them was killed by unknown gangs and they alleged that the same gang raided another comrade and left him injured. 

Similar case happened at Kanjuku Vocational Training Centre, where Alice Wangechi, a 22-year old student was  to death allegedly by his lover near the police station, when she had just returned from the guise of recovering her lost phone.

The students of Pwani University and Ramogi Institute of Advanced Technology are now demanding justice for their fellow comrades over the inhumanity done to some of them and that is threatening their safety.

The life of comrades at tertiary is now at risk. The students sail through the insecurity situation within them. 

Who might be after the lives of the students, why attacks and what is it that should be done to avoid precarious conditions that is leading to injuries and deaths.

"Your first enemies are the ones dining with you on the table," at Kisii University, it was alleged that Douglas had made it known to his friends that he was going to receive the money he had received as loan from Higher Education and Loans Board (HELB) then it did not take half a day for him to be attacked. Who knew that he had money? Who knew of his en route? 

Faith and comrades at RIAT attacks are around campuses and not within their homes or far away from their institutions.

We cannot say it is friends, but also we should know that your first traitor is your friend. Even though it cannot be deductively said that it is his friends who betrayed him. But it is comrades who can be assumably said to have done it.

The students have turned to be their own enemies, comrades. Comrades are those who are friends, companions, fellow soldiers, or associates. Comrades are those who have come together for a joint purpose. How whence are comrades turning against each other?

When such attacks happen where students are butchered, murdered, mugged, and robbed, and it is possible that their fellow students are the mastermind, a lot lingers in mind. Where did the students lose their comradeship, and where did they start to be rained on?

The solution for the insecurity around campuses should start by combing the comrades' deviant, those who are rogue among them.

The call by the students for the insecurity concern b to be addressed is not a lineal matter where the security officers are the only persons to be burdened with heavy tasks as if the attacks are taking place from another planet.

The comrades should revive their comradeship then their unity will be back and peaceful co-existence will be a problem no more. The precautionary measures on security should not be neglected at all by the comrades

Security should be beefed up around the campus to ensure the students are safe, learning cannot take place where security is threatened. In some Universities such as Kisii University learning ends at 7pm, and it is this time when some of the attacks mostly take place.

Personal security and public security are vital. The students' and institutions' are priority.

FOR THE LOVE OF COMRADESHIP

By Glen Don  112 YEARS GONE  In the Atlantic ocean one of the horrible things happened. Lives were lost, property of invaluable destroyed and other belongings got lost. It is exactly a hundred and twelve years since 'The Unsinkable' sunk and never to be resurfaced on water or on earth. The Titanic ship during the time would be the largest ship on earth to be ever built, The Titanic ship during its era of the launch was the largest in the world. The ship's capacity is said to be possibly 3,300 while those who were on board is said to be about 2,000 and of those who boarded only thirty two percent survived the shipwreck. Majority of those who survived were women and children. This is due to the privilege they were granted to be the first people to be saved. The Titanic ship shipwrecked after hitting an iceberg that was ahead of it, due to the surcharged pressure, the ship divided into two making it to get submerged in the Atlantic ocean. The ship sunk down the ocean when it ...

The Room of two contradicting speeches

The miss link in communication in the Government as a unit is a puzzle. President William Ruto was today on May 3, expected to address the nation on the state of the nation in regard to the flood. Just before the President addressed the nation, there was a memo circulating already of how the school reopening would go on as planned. The Ministry of Education while addressing the safety of the learners through the memo directed that the School Board of Management to ensure that the learners are ready for learning and precautionary measures are undertaken to avoid hindrances. Later, two hours after the memo, the President addressed the nation and ordered that the postponement of school reopening be suspended until further notice. Out of the impossible, the ministry of education seemed to be having the stand of opening schools. The Education Cabinet Secretary seems to be under pressure when he was releasing the memo since the last was released on the wee hours of the morning hence today...
