]Horth, it looks like someone's living as if Nkaissery's proposed "traffic offenses act" is law in blogging matters as well. Here's what he had in mind: "Last Tuesday, the good General intimated that he was preparing a law or rules that would make traffic offences be tried in places remote to the scene of crime. Nkaissery gave as examples instances where a traffic offender in Mombasa could find himself or herself being arraigned in Kisumu courts while an offender in Nairobi could be tried in Mandera. This, according to the Cabinet Secretary, would instil discipline among the Kenyan motoring public, who would be dissuaded from breaking the law due to the huge financial costs involved, and productive time taken. I hope the minister was cracking a joke and was able to laugh at his own joke." www.the-star.co.ke/news/clearly-wrong-start-nkaisseryIt seems to me the cops are instinctively returning to their Police Force/Farce? ways as they shelve the Police Service wool they briefly covered themselves with back in 2010 when the Constitution was promulgated. I never expected I'd miss Kibaki & his "I hear no evil" ways when it came to taking criticism so soon into the digital era... The Police Farce Force!? --They are taking the farce too far! witnessing full=combat dress (more like your original Hurt Locker, scattering little children demanding their stolen Land. My head sunk to my chest, listening to the new tough guy. The police hardly have money to put fuel into their vehicles to chase cattle rustlers, and here is a program to flying officers around the country and afford them lodging and dines in remote places, waiting to be witnesses in remote courtrooms over simple traffic offenses! One hesitates to said it aloud, an evaluation score of the managerial competence of this retired major general: a zero. Fella has no head for the financial logistics of a bureaucratic decision he proposes, leave alone effectiveness and other practical details. And he does not know man Rotich, finance cab sec, is hard up. --Man is currently negotiating an IMF loan of ksh. 65 bn, to bribe teachers with among others .. like voters upfront. The department of finance can certainly do without dim wit plans to have traffic cops criss-cross the land to remotest courtrooms, in a silly effort to discipline ever roguish road warriors like Jukwaa's b6k!Good Lord! did Lenku ever utter such rubbish!? Phew! try your traffic cases at the nearest court! And do not drive bloggers 500km to cells! Economically said, plain stupidity!

Jakaswanga, the Police Farce need to have their rules of engagement re-evaluated. They have removed the veneer of Police Service they tried so hard to put on after PEV and the new constitution. It's business as usual in the KANU era...

In line with the new constitution, it is called the Kenya Police Service...it is no longer a force! " A rose by any other name would smell as sweet" - William Shakespeare " A Kenyan Police Force by any other name would smell as bad" - Horth Nkaissery, frothing and foaming, demands to know the names of the officers who led the fiasco: Nkaissery demands names of officers who lobbed tear gas at Lang'ata pupils

It's business as usual in the KANU era... In line with the new constitution, it is called the Kenya Police Service...it is no longer a force! Kamale, I'm very aware of the politically correct (PC) narrative sold by the new constitution that institutions have changed both in name & service delivery, even if whatever "reforms" that were to be held were neither clear nor transparent. Much like you may decide to call the sh!t stirrer who comes to exhaust your filled septic tank a Sanitation Engineer the basic fact remains that the sh!t stirring work he does in order to exhaust your effluent remains just that...sh!t stirring. Yesterday the Police Service proved in a farcical manner that would've been funny if it weren't so horrendous that they remain very much the Police Force whose duty remains to protect property of those with money and connections even if the property may have been acquired in an irregular (read illegal) manner. So yes one can chose to be politically correct and refer to things under the new garb or simply call it like it is. At the end of the day when all's said and done, what has really changed in Kenya when ALL of the main political players in the land whether in the government or in the opposition remain veterans of KANU? Changing the name doesn't change the game. The sooner we admit that the better...

No it's not. I'm very much on theme with a Police Force that serves to protect the elite & rubishes its motto "Utumishi Kwa Wote". A Police Force that has proved time and again that it exists to protect the interests of the elite and those who "know people" at the expense of the common mwananchi who it usually crushes underfoot when ordered to do so. Just like Wadi has been, au sio?

All the institutions, from the police through the KRA, the judiciary all the way up to the executive purely exist to protect the elite, leaving Moses Kuria to sleep very very comfortably at night.
