[dropcap]T[/dropcap]here is something crazy about Kenyans. They can turn everything to a joke and their creativity especially on social media is out of this world.
On Thursday afternoon, Lands Cabinet Secretary Charity Ngilu released the names of people behind the Lang’ata Primary School land grabbing saga. The names, Mandip Singh Amrit, Manjit Singh Amrit, Harbans Singh Amrit and Kamal Prakash Amrit have caused an uproar on Twitter as Kenyans on Twitter (KOT) using the hash tag #NgiluSinghJokes to show displeasure with the names released, which all had the SINGH surname.
Here are some of your Tweets:
