X-Posted from H-NET List for African History and Culture <H-AFRICA@H-NET.MSU.EDU> From: "Jonathan T. Reynolds" <reynolds@MAIL.H-NET.MSU.EDU> ---------------------- 1. From: Jane Irungu University of Kansas <irungu@ku.edu> I feel terrible about this. Hard to tell whether it was politically motivated or just another "Nairobi incident". Whichever the case my best regards to Ngugi and his family and wish him a quick recovery. ------------------------------ 2. From: X. N. Iraki Jackson, MS <xniraki@yahoo.com> Ngugi's attack, apart from denting the image of our county, is a step back in time. To attack a person whose only weapon is words is very unfair. Those responsible should face the full force of the law. ------------------------------ 3. From: Donald Z. Osborn <dzo@bisharat.net> An article from Kenya with more details was posted on the Africa-oped group at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/africa-oped/message/10159 A shorter Reuters story is at http://www.nytimes.com/reuters/arts/entertainment-crime-kenya-writer.html -----------------------------
