Abdikadir, on the issue of hard labor. This is colonial mentality that a person who was imprisoned had to be given hard labour like a form of punishment. Today, there are other ways that you can rectify the behavior of a person without necessarily having them do hard labour that involves physical strength. In equal strength, we should scrap it and treat it as colonial in this particular case."}
