Fare Thee Well Young Comrades
In the shadow of baobabs, on plains of red,
I stand, a teacher, with bowed head.
Before me lies a student, eyes in shock and dead
A crash scene, now her bed!
I am out of mind; a wanderer, lost,
In the depths of grief, where memories exhaust.
Philosophy whispers, in the winds so kind,
But answers elude, as questions bind.
The road to knowledge, fraught with pain,
Yet ignorance too, bears its stain.
What price for wisdom, what toll to pay,
In the wake of tragedy, on this fateful day?
Death, not our kin, yet here it stands,
Claiming lives with steely hands.
I mourn KU students, their dreams untold,
Their journey cut short, on red tarmac, spread.
At the crossroads of fate, I stand forlon
In the aftermath, where echoes groan.
Lecture halls empty, seats unfilled,
A void that lingers, grief distilled.
Oh! Death, what have you done,
To tear apart the lives we've spun?
I am confused, I am out of my mind,
In the land of pain, where teeth grind.
But still, I am here, a poem in our sigh,
Wingless bird, in the skies

This is how dictatorship starts. It creeps in when the country is hungry, exhausted and desperate.
It starts by killing organized institutions and spaces that would protect the people against excesses by those in power.
We cannot allow anyone to turn the judiciary into a scared, threatened and bludgeoned institution because that cannot be in the interest of the people.
We need a strong, INDEPENDENT, competent and ETHICAL judiciary. We cannot build one through executive threats, intimidation, coercion, or bribery!
