Kenya is a good country as long as you are not perceived as a threat to the powers-that-be. As long as you keep your head low; you focus on your day job; and you are not acting in a manner that is seen as a threat to the wealthy and the powerful political elite, you are safe, but the moment you do anything that might jeopardize the interests of the wealthy and powerful political leaders --- for example, you know something that might land them in jail, you will be eliminated. It is that simple.
You will be dead!!! You will be killed, and those who were sent to kill you will in turn be killed, and then those who killed those who killed you will be killed, and then those who killed those who killed those who killed you will be killed .... and so on ... I hope you see the pattern.
That is what happened after the murder of Dr. Robert Ouko in 1990. Nearly all those linked to Dr. Ouko's death have died in very mysterious circumstances. Ouko's family as well as all Kenyans of goodwill are still waiting for justice.
To further add to what I am saying, here is Joe Khamisi' article, "Is Poison the New Bullet in High Profile Kenya Murders." Here is the link to the article:

In addition, let me give you a more recent example of inexplicable deaths, in this case, those associated with the post-election violence in Kenya. The Mungiki group is said to have been hired by some top Kenyan politicians to participate in the post-election violence in Kenya. After that, the key Mungiki leaders who are said to have been given money to participate in the violence started "dying" --- I mean somebody started killing those Mungiki leaders one by one. The group that is said to have killed them is some Kenya police outfit called the Kwekwe squad.
Well, on August 3, last year, the leader of the Kwekwe squad, Zebadayo Maina, was shot to death in mysterious circumstances.
And guess what? The members of the Kwekwe squad realized what was happening, that they were going to be next. They quickly hired a lawyer, and recorded a statement saying that their lives were in danger. Here is a link to their story in the East African Standard newspaper:

And just recently, Maina Kiai claimed that his life and those of his family were in danger following allegation that he was a witness in the Kenya cases at the ICC. Maina Kiai said he would hold the Kenyan state liable if something to him or to his family members. Here is the report:

Finally, there is a report just coming out of the disappearance of Albert Muriuki, a senior advisor to Uhuru Kenyatta on legal and constitutional affairs. What is very interesting about this report is; first, Albert Muriuki was an intern with the ICC before he was hired to work as an advisor to Uhuru Kenyatta; and second, he is not the first peson associated with Uhuru Kenyatta's case at the ICC to have either disappeared, gone underground, died, or refused to cooperate with the ICC. Here is the link to Albert Muriuki's mother asking for information on the whereabouts of her son.

And there many other reports like these ones --- of mysterious deathreats, deaths, and disappearances --- in Kenya. There are many reasons you don't hear about these reports, and I will get back to them later on when time allows.
So, to go back to the beginning. Kenya is a good country as long as you keep your head low, your mouth shut, and your eyes closed. You see nothing and you hear nothing, you are safe.
But the moment you see something and talk, especially if might be pereced to be threatening to the interests of the rich and powerful ---- you are done with, you are gone.
