Many people in Kenya take the police as bad people not knowing that there are several police officers who need to be applauded for their humbleness and good job.
It’s sad to see Kenyans blaming police officers just because of one rogue police officer. This drives me to talk about one exemplary police officer who instead of using his gun to wipe people he is using his mouth to whip people.
He said personally he doesn’t support some of the negative police actions despite him being a police officer. He further said that police are human beings who are willing to relate with other people on a friendly ground.
According to him, words are more touching and they can easily change someone compared to some crude methods the police use to correct or bring sense to people.
In addition, he urged the youths not fall into a trap of being used by politicians who cannot help them in any way. He said that politicians are using the youth because of their ignorance something the youth need to know.
While addressing the youth he said instead of engaging in demonstrations and other violent actions they should look far beyond their problems and challenges.
He admitted that sometimes being a police officer is hard and one need to have a big heart to do the job. At one point he said a lot of things cross his mind when the people you are out to defend turn against you.
To him, it is also a challenge to sacrifice your freedom for the sake of other people freedom. In short, he said it is good to give a listening ear to police officers because they have much to offer in the society.
