Dear Mr President, our country is in turmoil. We are scared and scarred. Last Sunday I read the papers and felt instantly depressed. Visitors were being pulled out of hotels and some airlines had decided to avoid Kenya until October!
What really brought it home for me, though, were the words of a mother whose child who is in the process of sitting exams. I asked the mother how the daughter was doing and she said to me, “my fear is no longer the exams but rather what kind of a country my daughter will inherit from us ”
