And that is compounded further by the fact that most police officers aren't the best and the brightest of our education system, with the requirement for them to become officers being a D+ and a full jaw of teeth.
So you can appreciate the irony when police officers engage university students participating in civil disobedience like a demonstration. These often start off peacefully but that is not to say that there aren't criminal elements among university students or that criminal elements do not take advantage of striking students.
Perhaps that was the case here when police descended on students from JKUAt who were demonstrating and both male and female students were unlucky enough to fall afoul of egalitarian police officers who mete out beating across the board regardless of gender -true gender equality.
And Kamene Goro had alot to say about the viral video doing rounds that shows police officers tandikaing a uni student like ghasia:
Are we really going to be attacked by this state on all fronts????? How can we live in a country where everything in the system is working against it's people???? HOW??? How are we deserving of a Country that does this TO US!!!!!! I am so fed up with the despair and plight AND PAIN that comes with being a Kenyan!Everyday we are confronted with the Terrible things happening in this Kenya, not buy Nature, by Nonsense, NEGLIGENCE & GREED!!!
