Avoid insults and discuss matters that can improve our lives

Kenyans cheer during a political rally. [Standard]

Whiffing and encouraging contempt has heightened into a general pursuit. Lately, our pregnant political speeches wound profoundly and extensively. It has turned into a double-edged sword of sorts that oftentimes embarrasses the orator as much as it scandalises the target. Thus, there is no secret that tolerating our pretentious violence occasions serious damage, not only to the target of our rhetoric but also our national fabric. In fact, this position violates the letter and spirit of laws and the Constitution.
