Yes, daktari can easily make looters eat grass

TimbuktuExpress

with MAFTAH YUSUF

There’s only one foolproof way of ensuring that victims of the wanton looting that was the Westgate fiasco get full compensation while the thieves get exposed for their heinous crime.
No, I don’t mean that we create a tribunal to probe the matter, not at all. We should not go into commissions of inquiry either. Kenyans have lost faith in commissions since we paid Waki to look into the post-election violence and yet up to date his famous envelope is lost somewhere between The Hague and Nairobi.
Don’t even listen to Interior Cabinet Secretary that the best way to catch the thieves is to bring in forensic experts.
Let forensics first determine whether the terrorists were male or female. We in this country have our own proven methods of catching thieves. We just enlist the services of one of the many witchdoctors swarming the villages and remote corners of this country.
