It is true indeed that the story has spurred Kenyans into contributing and showing there generosity but it still exposed her in a very vulnerable state. Is it not possible to get Kenyans to respond in the manner they have done without exposing Conje they we did? Kenyan media has been able
to get Kenyans to support worthy causes without such graphic details that dehumanize the subject. This story reminded me of Hon. Matiba during the times he used to appear t press conferences, ( i preferred the robust eloquent successful politician and business man of before). I believe dignity is a fundamental right we need to hasten the process of formulating the necessary laws that will protect us from ourselves.</span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;"><span>Toepista<br></span></div><div><br></div> <div style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"> <div style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 12pt;"> <div dir="ltr"> <font face="Arial" size="2"> <hr size="1"> <b><span style="font-weight:bold;">From:</span></b> "ngethe.kariuki2007@yahoo.co.uk"

If Data Protection law was in place,what was aired would most likely have failed the test.
