When you’re young and fresh out of high school, Option A : University, is usually the wisest first move.
It gives you exposure, networks, discipline, credentials and time to understand yourself. Business, marriage and overseas can still come later but a solid foundation makes every path easier.
The irony is loud. Boda bodas going against traffic is exactly like Prof. Makau Mutua following Ruto - moving against the flow, then asking why the road has lost order.
We cannot condemn disorder only when it is on the road and excuse it when it is political. A society loses order when everyone decides rules, principles and direction only matter when convenient.
@Gaddafess When are we ever going to have this conversation: Majority of our doctors prey on the sick. They have made medical services soo expensive such that you are only one sickness away from poverty.
It's now survival for the fit and/or rich.
Gachagua is not speaking as an innocent observer. He understands the playbook because he has used it before.
When Raila and Uhuru were putting political pressure on the government, the response was not dialogue or persuasion. It was intimidation. Uhuru’s farm was invaded, and there were even allegations of attempts to frame his sons with guns and drugs.
The same logic later appeared during the Gen Z protests. For days, young people protested peacefully. The government was at a loss because it did not know how to handle a leaderless, peaceful movement.
So the strategy changed: create disorder, attack businesses, and turn business owners against the protesters. Once peaceful protest is associated with chaos, public sympathy shifts, and repression becomes easier to justify.
That is why Gachagua’s comments now sound familiar. He is not guessing the script. He knows the drill because he helped write earlier chapters of it.
