Dear Foreign Reporters…


It must be great working for CNN,BBC,FRANCE INTERNATIONAL,S­KY NEWS,CCTV,VOA et cetera et cetera…..

I am just wondering ,Where are You now? I cant see You running around town with your little cameras and little recorders… I expected to see you running up and down,asking questions,sweat­ing,panting,fal­ling over each other,ducking rubber bullets,avoidin­g the tear gas,screaming and shouting and taking photos and scribbling your dirty notebooks…

Where are You?? Am looking for You! I cant see You!

You came to cover violence! You came to report bloodshed! You came for those bloody photos! You came to cover death and ethnic cleansing!

Arent You bored by now??? YOU MUST BE!

Because WE ARE PEACEFUL. We aint running around. We aint fighting. We aint screaming and dying and burning tires in the streets!

We are just chillin’

Just Relaxin’ . LIKE A BOSS!

Our Deep Apologies . We werent going to fight. NO. NOT AGAIN.

So,continue admiring Nairobi and taking photos of Jeevanjee Gardens. Yes, continue admiring our climate…you might try visiting the Masai Mara….or the Maasai Market in the afternoon…

WE AINT FIGHTING.

WE WONT FIGHT.

WE WOULDNT FIGHT AGAIN.

Nway, continue enjoying our coffee….AND YOU CAN LEAVE soon as you are done!

Adios!

Goodbye!

Kwaherini!
