When President Uhuru Kenyatta took to the podium to address Kenyans at Afraha stadium recently during the thanksgiving prayers for the former “Ocampo six”, he was quick to assure all and sundry that his government will be vigilant so that the occurrences akin to those of 2007-08 after the general elections will not recur by ensuring security measures were fully in place before and after the next general elections.
“We are not here to celebrate but to remember the lives that were lost eight years ago.” The president said adding that the country was rededicating its efforts towards reconciliation and working towards overcoming the challenges of poverty, ignorance and poor health which still ailed the society.
