Nearly 28 years after the deadly bombing of the United States Embassy in Nairobi, survivors and families of victims are now pleading with President William Ruto to intervene and help end what they describe as decades of neglect, suffering and delayed justice.

I can attest to the quality Matiang'i brings to the table, he's a good one for this country.
