Uphold the President’s pledge to protect freedom

By Angela Ambitho

What an auspicious day it was when Africa turned out in its might and splendour to usher in the Fourth President of Kenya on April 9. Everything ran almost perfectly for an event of its magnitude. The entertainment kept the crowds invigorated, the flowing gowns, colourful frocks, and pristine suits made the atmosphere vibrant while the well-crafted speeches kept the audience at ease. Pray for the slight tardiness of the outgoing Head of State and the near diplomatic fisticuffs between our security personnel and those of visiting Heads of State, this was a well-planned, beautifully orchestrated event. The organisers deserve an ‘B+’ for effort and achievement.
