No title

Something I’ve always quite irritating is when Students take to the streets to protest.There is nothing wrong with you as an individual or as a Kenyan to that effect expressing your dissatisfaction.In the last two months we have seen three public institutions go on the rampage and in the process destroying property worth millions.Something reminiscent of the high school strikes we witnessed last year.Their reasons were baseless and most were doing it coz of the euphoria that had gripped the country.Could Universities have been driven to also act in the same immature way?They had some concrete reasons for taking to the streets as in UoNs case where they were allegedly demanding for justice,did they accomplish their objective?Oscar’s story is no longer headlines and the students seem to have forgotten what took them to the streets a few weeks back.

Just when our elders were starting to have faith in our poorly-resourced institutions,they go out and take us back to ground zero.I have never believed in protesting as the way to voice your concerns,yes it may be used if you have exhausted all other avenues and in most of the above scenarios there were more productive revenues.

Back in High School we had what was called the chain of command,most of you might have had it it in your schools also.It was put in place to ensure that issues were voiced in the right manner and delt with effectively,if a matter was to eventually reach the principals desk it was considered quite major.So if the university students want to burn down our cars and loot our shops they should follow the right channels before doing so then we can know it is a major issue.

The impact of these strikes will be felt right till you leave school,a 1st Class Hnrs from Strathmore will always look promising than one from UoN for the boss along University way who could’nt report to his office a few weeks back.We really need to build the reputations of our public institutions.
