    "content": "Kenya has become a transit country for drugs coming from places like Afghanistan. We are now a transit country for drugs to Europe and America and nothing is happening to the people who have made millions of shillings out of it. I speak about the Akasha family because they made millions. There are others as well who are in power right now, who have started and received their millions through drug dealing. It is time these people are mentioned, taken forward and dealt with in accordance with the law. Sometimes we need to find shortcuts for murderers and drug dealers who spoil the lives of many people and get away with it. Their lawyers should be blacklisted. There are high powered lawyers who protect these dealers. Somewhere along the line, the country and the people must come first. As much as I agree that the fines should be increased, there is no need to increase fines if you cannot catch the criminals. It is time the power, salaries and remuneration of the anti-narcotics police is increased and they are given special authority to move against drug dealers without following too much law, where they get frustrated and the drug dealers get away with it."
