@EricNjiiru The guy should be subbed at the 60th minute. That should be the rule. But the coach seems intimidated or fearful to take a bold decision on this issue.
🇰🇪🇺🇸 | Kenyan police shot dead a protester as hundreds demonstrated against a US quarantine facility in Nanyuki.
The facility is for US nationals exposed to Ebola. Not for Kenyans.
The protester was shot in the head and at least 19 people were arrested, according to Reuters, at the site where the US is building a 50-bed unit at Laikipia Air Base.
Kenya has no Ebola case of its own; the unit would hold US nationals exposed to the virus in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda. It runs on roughly KSh 1.68 billion — about USD 13 million in US aid.
This is not the first killing: on 1 June police shot two protesters dead and arrested 31. Demonstrators call their country a "dumping ground" and have vowed to march until the plan is scrapped.
Washington says it "cannot and will not allow" any cases to enter US territory. Kenyan President William Ruto calls the deal "mutually beneficial" — while his own police keep killing the Kenyans who refuse it.
We are not shocked that after the Somali referee was denied entry into the United States, the next convenient story is now trying to link him to Al Shabaab.
This is the same old script powerful countries use whenever they need to justify humiliation, discrimination, exclusion or violence against people they have already decided to punish.
Iraq had weapons of mass destruction when America needed a war, and Libya was presented as a humanitarian rescue before the bombs fell and the country collapsed into chaos.
Whenever they need public sympathy for a questionable decision, they first manufacture a security cloud using words like terrorist, extremist, threat, militant links and national security concern.
Those labels are designed to make ordinary people stop asking questions, because once someone is branded a security risk, many people assume there must be something hidden.
If there is real evidence against the referee, let them produce it openly and allow the world to examine it instead of hiding behind vague border language.
If there is no evidence, then they should stop using security propaganda to cover a broken, humiliating and discriminatory visa system that treats Africans like suspects.
Africa has watched this movie before, and every time the powerful side needs an excuse, the script somehow ends with fear being manufactured.
Crime in Nairobi is so bad the thieves now operate in shifts.
During the day, phone, side mirrors, bumper & handbag crew.
6pm onwards bodas & guns.
Weekends, house burglaries.
Mondays, goons galore.
Week nights, manhole & street sign thieves.
Weekend nights restaurant thieves.
Death in Custody. Again!

Why is it called the World Cup when some people from certain regions are excluded? Is football and sports generally supposed to unite people from all walks of life?
