Finaly,Light at the end of the tunnel.UoN student speaks to fellow comrades; SOBER UP SIR

SOBER UP SIRIt is frustrating to be in your room the whole day without means of bringing your phone to life.Even more disturbing that you cannot prepare a meal simply because electricity took to the heels and left you with hunger pangs.But wait;Imagine yourself as that hardworking kenyan living from hands to mouth at the wake of biting economic times.That your salary even if it was to be trippled,cannotbe anywhere near that of a county MCA.And because receiving hands and wanting mouths are more than giving ones;you forgo that rest on a Saturday;you forfeit a sweet familytime so as to ran an extra errand in your genuine attempts to make yourends meet.And just when the sun decide what you have made is enough for the dayand you are on your way to the tentyou call your home;to at least get your mind off the struggles of your life;alas!Stones comes greeting your windscreen and before you know it,sheepish and mean looking group ofmen flank you demanding you part with everything you have(as if you have it)You think hard guessing your mind isplaying games;wonderingwhether you used the wrong path but looking not far;you realize you are just within the university of Nairobi area.And the men extorting from you are mere students!What strikes you off head is not the fact that you are being robbed,No!That students are from the premier institution of higher learning paralyze your mind!To cut the story short ,i fail to understand how a whole learned(or learning) human being can take to such wayward actions just because there is power outages in the institution.We are supposed to be models from whom others can take after yet this is what we can show after years of learning??I fail to connect the dots!After your course comes to an end,you will wake up to a very harsh reality.All those things you are doing today,will come haunting you.If you commit to do what is right and just to the society,good tidings await you!I know you are bright and academically gifted but without humility and discipline ,your academic might is just as useless as a linen to a pig.Sober Up Sir .Stop being idle and rush to the library!
Regards
