    What I really mourn, personally, is politics. Politics has come in between us such that it's very difficult for a substantial section of this country to connect and empathize. We're not a Kenyan family. We'd be far stronger if we were together. Unity _IS_ strength. A few people with aspirations of power and money have come in between us. I'll mourn this for a very long time

    Thanks Mr.Ngugi for speaking out 👍 my question is which one between the two is dangerous:-
    1- I drink too much/alcoholic,sometimes drink a whole bottle of whiskey almost daily but don’t get drank or rather it doesn’t show or no signs or symptoms of alcoholiciism….. perform my duties well ,do everything right… no one not even my wife knows am addicted,i do it hiding?
    2- one is drank violent aggressive arrogant can’t even work/job staggering accidents etc…. job is only drinking and sleeping?
    3- What advice can you give person/point one?I perform duties well when high than when not high?

    Thanks for sharing. I am also going through the same and blaming myself for being a single mum. Mine is different. I personally was Raped and gave birth to a child with dissability. He is 20yrs and in college. My daughter was raped when she was 9yrs. She is 16yrs and in form four now. The problem started after she was raped and she became very violent. By then she was with my mum in the village. She would fight with anybody. I brought her to Nairobi and she continued fighting.
