#comradepower
“COMRADES! COMRADE POWER!” It has started again- cries of
comradeship! Students Organization of Nairobi University (SONU) elections are
upon us, again.
You know what that means right? Well, once in a while, the
students do something to remind motorists along Waiyaki Way and Uhuru Highway
that they run the streets. Bags are being packed just in case someone says that
elections have been rigged. Tempers flare. Tension. Headache. Street battles
with the police. Nobody is safe.
Probably, if you own a car, I think that it will be wise to
use the public service. Why you ask? If the recent goings-on are anything to believe,
then there is a major storm in the offing.
Every time a student’s kamukunji (informal meeting) being
held somewhere is heard then something is up!
Bill Odunga writes for The Crazy Monday Standard Newspaper’s
pullout; “dark clouds are gathering. They are heavy with rampant student
strikes, incessant institutional bureaucracy and general laxity of the
administration in handling student affairs.
When these clouds finally have their fill; which should be
sometime next week; it will not just rain. It will pour. Torrents and
hailstones. It will flood the entire university.
But not just the entire nine campuses of the Ivory Tower;
but speculation and logical deduction is that the El Nino will have to
drown the neighbors, too. Business premises around the school, the motor
vehicles, innocent by-standers and street families will feel the wrath of these
waters. Be advised.
Forget Game of Thrones, folks. This is SONU, and the storm is coming."
