Ever since I started paying my taxes, such news always raises my eyebrows due to that feeling of it-is-my-money. I quickly went through the article to determine where my four billions were headed to. The target was a bombshell. HIV/AIDS drugs for commercial sex workers!
I wondered how the government would waste so much money on such workers when innocent Kenyans were dying of hunger in Turkana! Leave alone hunger. If the money was specifically meant for such drugs, why not target HIV/AIDS orphans in slums and orphanages? I have been writhing in furry ever since I read that article until last weekend when I came to a full glare of what the government might have seen before coming up with that decision.
It was around 8pm and I was in a gleeful mood. My team, though miles away in a foreign land, had just recorded a rare victory. I was in a hurry to reach my residence and torment those haters of my red team. I took some unusual routes through the congested streets of Pipeline Estate in the larger Embakasi area.
