I was rather shocked at those, who, with macabre and morbid glee, agreed with Professor Henry Indangasi's senior room gossip and innuendos, yeasty departmental politics, as fact and thought someone's divorce, depression and choices are good subjects for rigorous scrutiny of one of Kenya's finest writers and academic.

It is hard to understand for whom Professor Indangasi wanted to set the record straight about Professor Micere Mugo. Mugo died at 80, in the US where she was buried on July 29. As many have observed, there is only one motive, but to that, we shall return.
