I wish to thank the Standard Group and the Kenya Television Network for the well researched and insightful documentary you aired last week concerning the nomenclature and origins of the Mungiki sect. The documentary was an eye opener to many people who do not know the social, economic and political origins of the group. Your documentary was an eye to many viewers who only associate the sect with violence without the knowledge that below the labyrinth there are underlying economic, political and socio-cultural issues which persuade many young people to join the sect. The documentary was also a wake up call to the political leadership of this country that the use of force alone will not solve the myriad problems that the youth of this country are facing. Unless the leaders pass good laws and formulate policies to create a system that promotes inter-generational equity and ensures equality and justice across the social strata, then this country will continue to experience insecurity occasioned by organised criminal gangs. Organised criminal syndicates and militia groups are scrumptious to the hordes of youth who have no access to gainful employment or economic resources. Kudos KTN for the good work!
