I wanted to go away from this (non) argument with you but nikaona I share one last word. None of us the citizens of Kenya and that includes the President, his ministers and our gallant medical workers have ever experienced a pandemic like this one.
Not evem when our neighbours were affected by Ebola, chikungunya, dengue and so forth.
We are not navigating from experience for it is new ground for all of us. Some decisions will definitely be missteps.
Yet every step we take must be guided by the need to respect every citizen's rights.
I have consulted in task forces when the government had to solve urgent problems and I can assure you like now there's a team scoring all public fora for helpful suggestions. Criticism is also evaluated for good faith or lack of it . People whose mission in life becomes criticising everything are classified as detractors and therefore part of the problem. You'll hear some of them on the streets in four days to a week demonstrating over this or that.
We are in one boat that is being tossed about by storms, and the worst is yet to happen. Spare a thought for those who are not getting enough sleep so that we remain safe.

I think criticism should not be taken as a bad thing and as such trying to evaluate the same for good faith or the lack of it is a bit weird I would opine, by doing that you are already creating a bias in the criticism that you want to consider and it should be the reverse, if at all good faith is to be considered.

At times I get a feeling some in the government consider any deferring opinion to mean 'one is against them' which is not necessarily the case, the idea of tunajua na nyinyi wengine hamujui I think is dangerous.

That said in as much as I can not heap blame considering the situation and given the scale and novelty of the same, but people are hired for specific reasons, specific skill sets are required for some positions and I dont think a profesional should use a new experience as an excuse not to perform, that is the reason why not just anybody is given some roles, and as such it is expected that in times such as this the skills and value of an individual comes into play, this is when we can separate the wheat from the chaff, we are not in the same boat and at such times I refuse such lines, there are people who signed up for some roles and it is expected when such times come up they perform because the lives of many are dependent on their actions.

In a few weeks time when these guys get the PNC version of their stupid actions, they'll regret like shiet. Multiple Italians have mentioned how they never took it seriously several times, it's only a matter of time..
