Avoid Illicit Brew

Do not drink home made alcohol – anywhere,
not just Kenya. Over 50 people have died after drinking home made
alcohol laced with a substance believed to have been methanol in
Machakos, south east of Nairobi. Local newspaper, The People Daily,
identifies its own culprit. “The provincial administration
and the police are squarely to blame. They have failed to arrest and
charge individuals involved in the brewing and distribution of illegal
liquors.” This is not the first time that such a tragedy has
occurred. Just don’t do it!
