[kictanet] Have we failed the nation yet again?

[Bitange Ndemo]

Robert,
There is absolutely nothing anybody will have done with ICTs after the
terrorists stormed the Mall.  All IT gadgets worked properly.  CCTV
footage is there and was aired on TV yesterday.  The screening askaris had
no chance since the assailants forced their way in.

Perhaps what we need is more research to mount a camera on a fly (inzi)
with night vision to fly carefully within the terrorist hideout and
establish strategically on how to respond.  Some flies could be loaded
with sleeping gas to put assailants to sleep.  Drones do scan the horizon
giving military advance knowledge of the terrain.

Right now we should spend a few minutes to praise our uniformed forces. 
They did a commendable job.  In bitterness I am still proud to be Kenyan.


Ndemo.
