Palaver

Who makes up some of the stuff sent to Palaver? Sample this: “Dear Mr Mututho (John): (1) While there is always a food crisis in Kenya, there has never been a beer crisis. (2) Beer prices do not go up because rains failed. Or because there was a flood. (3) Actually, was it not for government taxes during budgets, beer prices would never go up. (4) People don’t invade forests like Mau so that they can grow beer. (5) No matter how poor any country is, you have never heard any country receiving relief beer. (6) If you miss beer for a week, you don’t go around chanting “Tunaomba serikali...” or ask neighbours to share theirs. (7) Lack of beer never breaks up family, but lack of food does. (8) Lack of beer never killed anyone. So you see, Mr Mututho, food is the real source of problems in society. Not beer!
