"When Duty Calls"

I am a Kenyan who stands proud and tall
I am a patriot who heard the call

I could be the kid you knew next door
The one you don’t see around anymore

Maybe you have wondered, where did he go
It’s sad to say, you just don’t know

You have seen me many times before
Never knowing I went off to war

Perhaps you caught a glimpse of me on TV
But did not know I‘m who keeps you free from alshabab

If you have trouble with my name
Remember, I do my job and seek no fame

People call me a hero of late
But I think it’s always been my fate

And if I see God’s bright light
I know my sacrifice was right

I am Kenyan who stands proud and tall
I am patriot who heard the call
I am a Soldier and that is all"

Remember us in your prayers................. "Operation Linda Nchi"

They flaunt the roads of east lands with signs “Picture me rolling; they are the Prime East Sacco "Matatus" plying the busy "Jogoo road" of Nairobi destination Kayole. 90% of the customers are youths, they are attracted to these "Matatus", because of the swag that comes with them, even though the fare is a little bit expensive than other "Matatus". No youth will like to be seen alighting from any old "Matatu" than the latest hit in town.This is so common to the girls and ladies from these parts of town. First things first, you get them in the downtown area of Nairobi commonly behind the infamous OTC stage, I guess the city council gave them this place because the rest of Nairobi cannot live up with the noise pollution
