Where the Hell is Moses Kuria?

It seems Moses Kuria, the man of many portfolios, embarked on a whirlwind adventure through the halls of government, only to find himself in a comedic conundrum. Starting off strong as the Cabinet Secretary for Investments, Trade, and Industry, he was the talk of the town. But alas, fate had other plans. In a twist fit for a sitcom, Kuria found himself shuffled over to the Public Service portfolio faster than you can say "bureaucratic shuffle". Then, the plot thickened! In a classic case of diplomatic drama, the US Trade Representative, Katherine Tai, decided to give Kuria a cold shoulder after cancelling not one, but two meetings with him. The reason?

Kenya as a Police State

"You have the emergence in human society
of this thing that's called the State.
What is the State?
The State is this organized bureaucracy,
It is the police department.
It is the Army, the Navy.
It is the prison system, the courts, and what have you.
This is the State -- it is a repressive organization

If there were no police, look at what you'd be doing to yourselves!
You'd be killing each other if there were no police!
But the reality is...
The police become necessary in human society
only at that junction in human society
where it is split between those who have and those who ain't got."
-Chairman Omali Yeshitela in Dead Prez's "Police State" (Let's Get Free, 200)
