Experience is the Best Teacher 

When I joined one of the so called Kenya discipline force (N.Y.S.). It was some were 1988 early January after my KCSE education and I went to try recruitment as a trained officer or personnel staff.(constable) PC or S.M. service man this two words are normally used in forces terminology they know it better. I am afraid to give the whole story because of security reasons but ill try the little I can. We were receipt at one of the major military training college in our republic Kenya. But reception at the gate wasn't friendly. Attemptyo greet any office that comes across or on you way? Instate of reply you and either whipet or abuse by unfriend words like Nongwe, jinga, meno kama ya kino, umbwa, mwewe, fisi, among others that I can't mention. Most of the officers are midle educated but only good at drill ground but speak sheng language that a trainee will not understand we were lined into three to form a plattors withour heavy box @ holding on on left hand. The so called commander came in found and gave as a brief that when I say Niece you all stand still, when I say by left quick match you start to match forward in three but on three lines. I was carrying a heavy box so when he said neice... I dropt down my box and may problame started there I was beaten and locked into one of their custody. vincents Mwachi
