        How did it escape him that, "Wahenga walinena, Kikulacho ki nguoni mwako". Opposition supporters have no time for vandalism

        You shouldn't listen to politicians. There's what we call the law. Vandalism does not attract a death sentence.

        A country without a visionary leader lacks the foresight to do well. Congratulations President Kenyatta for such a wonderful edifice.

        It hasn't happened yet. A law needs to be promulgated first to address that eventuality.
