Daylight robbery experience

I was reading the article in the Standard about the supercop from Githurai who is in remand for ‘extrajudicial killings’ and I came across this statement, "Having come to Githurai in 2003, “when shoes were being sold while still on the owners’ feet”.
This statement took me to way back when I was in Form three around early 2000s. I had just come from some high school festival and was heading to get a jav from Railways. As I was crossing the road from Church House side of the street, I was accosted by a work crew of ‘Obohos’ who ransacked my pockets and everything was gone in seconds, in broad daylight while people watched.

you cried…

Always capitalize the first letter of the first word in a sentence and finish it to give it a complete meaning. Osungu.jpg

You do not get to brutalize grammar and call it a signature then run around correcting other people’s posts.

Wapi Mbisha?

Asuming he was 17 while in form 3 (as most people do) in the year 2000, that would make him to be around 32 today. I don’t see why at 32 you should think he has one foot in the grave.

its plain weird that a 32 y.o guy would throw in such words in a convo which are synonymous with teens

Pia hiyo walienda nayo!

:D:D

Check the meaning of the word “synonymous” but I agree with your post. Whether I know these words or not I refuse to use them because I belong to a different generation. For example, Siwes ambia boy wangu anitolee “form” nitamshow atoe mpango…
