Despite the measures announced on Saturday by the government regarding the curfew and movement restrictions effected to curb the spread of coronavirus, they are not placated. In Kenya though, times had been meaner and leaner for years and the pandemic just exacerbated a situation already befouled by an uncaring parental authority. We know the shortcomings of our parental authority which, like Kenyans who elected it, is not a good listener and is keen on committing citizens to sufferance. That malaria deaths will increase because our ‘Malaria Warriors’ will be tasked with tracing and tracking down wayward coronavirus cases? Whatever the case, our fake outrage and unmitigated and unbridled belligerence towards an uncaring parental authority will not curb the spread of Covid-19 in our communities.
