  1. What we need now urgently is the protection of civilian lives in our country. This political violence after and during elections is a cancer destroying our country and Africa in general and should be stopped. Enough of finger pointing, let all the political parties, government, religious and civic institutions come together to solve this issue once and for all. Tribalism goes with political violence hand in hand and we should do something abouit it. We need new laws and penalties for those who engineer such acts. Tribalistic tendencies in public and behind closed doors should be exposed and condemned. Political violence perpetrated by private citizens and government employees must also be punished. Please you from the media organise a massive alliance in our country to combat political violence. Only primitive political thinking tolerates violence!!
