Dear Mr President Uhuru Kenyatta,
I am very disturbed by the hate speech law; was it tailored to checkmate CORD affiliated luo bloggers after your swearing in? and is Kaparo led NCIC today a borrowed knife in the hands of jubilee to export CORD into trepidation—I’m very afraid.
Hitler’s ancestor Mugo wa Wairimu and his diabolic band of keyboard Nazis are committing online holocaust against eminent members of my community, unabated, unperturbed of consequences if any. Iddi Amin’s ‘accomplice’ turn rogue KU lecturer Dr. Mukiri wa Gathendu, roams the hate speech battlefield like Goliath. Are these two dastards acting with blessings of the state or mere benefactor of one-eyed system that sees only one side.
The high affinity of DPP & the state to prosecute CORD affiliated Luo bloggers, and it’s lackluster to prosecute the opposite enkindle horrifying memories of apartheid South Africa.
I still give you the benefit of doubt I did when you were sworn in, when you promised to be president of those who voted for and against you. I still believe you are the president of the republic and not a sultan of ‘Jubileestan’.
Be faithful to your promise, rebuild the lost trust and confidence currently on the brink of precipice and be the TRADEMARK of hope and salvation for the weak and defenseless.
History is watching and each passing day is an inscription into your legacy as a president.
Yours sincerely.
