Kenya registered yet another low moment on Thursday last week when, in-facto leader of the Opposition, Rigathi Gachagua, came back after more than a month's sojourn in the US.
Chaos erupted along Mombasa Road when Mr Gachagua's motorcade was teargassed and goons descended on everybody in sight.
This culture of political intolerance and thuggery is inexorably being internalised.
Amid blame and counter-blame, it is difficult to apportion blame.
