JOWIE IRUNGU is a murderer according to the judge and until the court rules otherwise he stands condemned.
But here is why I have my doubts:
1. The 10 minutes timeline:
Jowie arrives at Monicah’s apartment disguised as Haron. ( hold on to this name for a minute).
Mind made up, he is allowed into the apartment, not as Jowie but as Haron. Did the guard call Monicah to say “ Madam Haron is here, anaweza ingia?” to which Monicah replied “Mpe simu niongee na yeye” only to find it Jowie and allowed him to come up?
Or did the guards - assuming one or two of them were on duty the past few days when Jowie visited-realize he is posing as Haron and just let him in?
The ID, did it have Haron’s face? Or was it Haron’s but with Jowie’s mugshot?
Let's move into the house:
Jowie has fooled all the guards and gone into the building as Haron; knocks on the door, Monicah lets him in and still determined to kill Monicah, finds her in the company of three other men…. Remember he still has ten minutes.?
Dressed in kanzu and Monicah not showing any signs of distress, jokes about his dressing…. in fact, one of the men says he “felt at home”

Bana unless we are talking about another Kenya, Kibaki appointed 87% of his cabinet from Mt Kenya after 2005. Kibaki is and still remains the worst tribalist after Moi.
We can't fix this country half-heartedly.
This country must go through this process - where those who never cared about governance/ corruption/ election- must continue asking questions then, only then can we can start talking about leadership.
There is nothing new under the sun.
@Donsarigo@amugira Choices indeed have consequences. Curious though, Dennis. The death convict, did you interview him? I'm curious; what made him do it? These kids need to learn from others
Students must understand that there are consequences when they set other human beings on fire.
When I visited Naivasha maximum prison I met the only suspect sentenced to death for the May 24, 1999 arson attack in Nyeri High School that claimed the lives of four prefects.
The student was 33 years old or thereabout when I met him. He was convicted by a juvenile court and later committed to life imprisonment after he turned 18.
The 2001 Kyanguli fire tragedy claimed the lives of 67 students. Two 16-year-olds were arrested and charged with murder. The judge handling the matter resigned in 2006 amid corruption-related allegations. A new judge declared the court matter a mistrial.
I took my time with the file, and it was clear that someone had done everything to make sure the two boys escaped justice. I tracked one down to an office in the CBD. He is somewhere out here.
The July 13, 1991, St Kizito High School massacre remains the most disturbing and heart-wrenching story I have covered.
The boys stormed the girls' dormitory. Reason? They had refused to join them in a strike.
In the ensuing violence, 71 school girls were raped and 19 of them lost their lives, mostly due to suffocation after being tightly packed into a corner during the attack.
Some were arrested and as usual, parents worked the justice system and many escaped the hangman’s noose.
But in a dark twist of events, most of the accused “turned mad”, and others ended up as drunks.
I remember visiting a lady now in her fifties who was still overwhelmed by the events of that night- oh she cried.
I met most of the boys then now men. Drunkards. Wasted.
Let’s see how the tragic Utumishi Fire tragedy plays out but if the prosecution proves those arrested are involved, it will be the end of school and freedom.
I have been to Nyeri, St Kizito, Kyanguli, Endarasha, and Bombolulu Girls' High School.
It's a life-changing experience!
No amount of justice or compensation can bring back the lives lost.

PRESIDENTIAL Escort Commander Noah Maiyo moved to Vigilance as William Sawe takes over after a serious breach on President Ruto; several other officers moved.
Why did he take the fall?:
The escort commander despite being answerable to the Inspector General of Police, has sweeping powers and total control of the presidential escort unit.
He is the only officer in PEU who can stop the president from “moving” at any given time if he deems such movement a security risk.
The presidential escort unit draws its officers from the elite Recce squad most of whom have undergone intensive close protection training overseas.
The presidential security RING is three-phased and at any given time moves in a rhombus shape with the president at the center of it.
The outermost circle consists of individuals generally known to the security detail, the second ring is layered by top government officials and the third and most crucial circle has been vetted, cleared, and every member in the circle is known to the security detail.
I dont know how a team can go for thirteen years without lifting a trophy and they still claim to play in the Premier League.
Anyway, congratulations @Arsenal!
In the Democratic Republic of Congo, protesters have burnt an Ebola containment center. Reason?
Authorities refused to give them the bodies of their loved ones who died of Ebola for burial.
I don’t know what to say. 🤷♀️
