Please tell me: How does Cocaine make its entry into the Republic of Kenya? Emperor Matiang'i: please do your job! You are in charge of the most corrupt ministry in Kenya.
The future of Kenya is our youth.
Cocaine, me the, Heroine makes it to US despite the sophisticated security and scrutiny of human traffic.
It's better you ask ABOVE THE LAW DRUGLORDS-Mwau.Njoho,Kabogo,Sonko,Wambui,Wanjala,BubuOwino,Pujan etc how they bribe their way to Kenyan and foreign markets.Ata Uhuru hana haya kusema anapigana na ufisadi yet he has all the evidence he needs to arrest them.I just wonder the amount of protection fee they pay to all prosecutors,police chiefs,their CIC,jambazi Uhuru and muuaji Raila to keep silent.

Eric, bravo for sharing. Addiction is one of the most evil thing. It isolates and tears families apart. May he rest in peace.
Use your star power to highlight the evils of corruption. A country led by drug dealers. A country led by drug users such as the boy wonder. This is not right. Corruption killed your brother. Don't let his death be in vain. Use your star power to change the country.
