[kictanet] I stand by the helpless

[Odhiambo Washington]

Hello Alex,

I do feel that some of the material you are posting on the KICTANet
list are out of scope of what the list was intended for. As the list
admin, I'd like to request you to try and be "in context".
I believe you can post these on other platforms. For instance,
http://politics.nationmedia.com/ has a BLOGS section, which I feel is
better suited for this kind of information.
Sorry if you feel I'm crossing your path.
