The rather upsetting 😖 ecosystem that goonism & political enterprise "are" appreciating as a "warm" habitat within Project Kenya is sure a grave concern.

Evidence exists that, if the normalization and corrosion's "bad" trains that encourage this diabolical "affair" between political enterprise and goonism are allowed to hurtle down 2026, into 2027, the country may just be on its voyage to DOOM!!

Join us this evening, OCT 1ST at BARAZA MEDIA LAB as we discuss WHY GOON CULTURE UNDERMINES KENYA'S DEMOCRACY.

IT is true that the history of goonism is as old as the "age" of independent Kenya and that it did not just start "recently." But merely stating that as a historical fact is not enough.

It is also true that a risk, threat, and even vulnerability and impact assessment indicating that "There would be goons..." on the prowl is a valuable baseline for intelligence risk analysis. However, how this actionable information was "managed" and by the quarters squarely charged with the management of public safety and security affairs was highly counterintuitive and left much to be desired.

TWO, merely saying that people were informed that "There would be goons..." and even adding that these "spaces" therefore needed to be "avoided" (and that people should stay at "home") rather grants credibility to "Goon Governance" and not to the legitimate public security actors. And in a rather regrettable note, it really does claw back on the letter and spirit of the constitutional order - freedoms of movement and association including, really, the right to assemble in pursuit of whatever positive aspirations we have as a general citizenry.

The sum total of it therefore is that it does risk being interpreted, even by the goons themselves, and, if I can be too brave, by their entire ecosystem that cashes in on the politico-goonism enterprise, that there are "recognized," and that "May be their Will be done" and to carry the day.

Lastly, my view is that the statement also offered a "benevolent" viewpoint: The suggestion that people should "go home," understood in its narrow sense as spaces away from goons is an avoidance strategy in risk management, granted! But without context, people would be at a loss as to what and where these "homes" are. Plus, given the broader context that Kenya really is home, the better standpoint should be that goonism and goon fiefdoms must be removed from all spaces "home" to allow peace and stability, security and safety to stand, thrive, and flourish for the benefit of all.

In conclusion, I feel that these are dangerous statements that not only promote perhaps the most insidious threat that goonism is, but also enhance the corrosion and normalization of runaway crimes in general.
Coming from the CS for interior, they are therefore MOST REGRETTABLE.

PS: As the country heads to the polls in 2027, this trend must be reversed. It starts with a practical and valid perspective on the threat of runaway goonism and other forces that may seek to capitalize on rising political tensions. These tensions create the conditions for their growth, while gaps in an ill-postured security architecture meant to address them provide the much-needed “habit strength” factors that stimulate and inspire them.

After I "crapped" most "humanly impossible" records in my basic military training, and in some of the hardest evolutions in Military Cadet Training, I asked them: "Is there more I can challenge myself "against" here?"

In the run up to the 2027 General Elections in Kenya, and considering the happenings around the by-elections gone by that can be regarded as "curtain raisers", signs are clear that GOONISM is increasingly being embraced as a tool for Political Patronage, with Democratic erosion being a central casualty.
Where's the place of the voter, and their "free" choices when their wills are mortgaged on the altar of the "wills" of GOONS, and their political handlers?

The question then becomes, if this graph is extrapolated, the skates raised, what are we looking at come next year when Kenya is holding her general elections?

I, Byron Adera, Pioneer (ex) Kenya Special Forces Officer, International Security Expert, and Consultant, spoke to DW's (Deutschs Welle) Kathy Short on my views on this emotive subject.

Have a look!

🇰🇪 A NATION OF GOONS? Kenya at a Crossroads

Following the shocking raid at All Saints Cathedral during a civil society forum, one hard question demands an answer: are we normalising political violence? TV 47 invited me, Byron Adera to help analyse this worrying trend.

𝑯𝒆𝒓𝒆'𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝒀𝒐𝒖:
Goonism in Kenya isn't random, it's a structured, financed system built on three pillars: desperate unemployed youth, winner-take-all politics, and guaranteed impunity.

The cost? Over $1.5B in economic damage from 2007/08 PEV alone, not counting lives lost. With 2027 elections approaching, we cannot afford to repeat history.
The way forward:

✅ Break the impunity chain — accountability in action, not words
✅ Meaningful youth investment
✅ Moral rearming as a society
✅ Putting the right people in institutions

KINDLY share, comment and most importantly, PLAY your role towards the betterment of Project Kenya.

𝑪𝒐𝒎𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒕 𝒊𝒏 𝒅𝒊𝒔𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒕 is a concept that is more "discovered" than it is "said" (taught theoretically) as a 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐥 𝒏𝒆𝒄𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒊𝒕𝒚 in the "STREETS" of profession of Arms (Military, police), and best, in the Special Forces Training.

Quite simply-well, it is hardly simple to be honest-it is the practice of embracing challenging (embracing the suck), new, or uncertain situations to foster personal growth, rather than avoiding them for temporary "ease".

SEE WHAT, 𝑪𝒐𝒎𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒕 𝒊𝒏 𝒅𝒊𝒔𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒕 is NOT just about the "forced" smiles or laughter that seem out of place when everything else seems to be going up in smoke (flames), or the "numbed" pains when all signs are that the body is under extreme pressure if even "torture"; it is more about the realisation that 𝑪𝑶𝑴𝑭𝑶𝑹𝑻 𝒁𝑶𝑵𝑬 is TRULY the riskiest place to be, and that by embracing the "pain" of crushing through the 𝑭𝑬𝑨𝑹 𝒁𝑶𝑵𝑬, the disruption of the 𝑳𝑬𝑨𝑹𝑵𝑰𝑵𝑮 𝒁𝑶𝑵𝑬 coupled with the bold "acceptance" of the paralysis and overwhelming anxiety associated with the 𝑻𝑬𝑹𝑹𝑶𝑹 𝒁𝑶𝑵𝑬 is what TRULY sets us apart.
If we are to realize the grandest of dreams, achieve and live the truest of our purpose(s), set and explore new goals, and conquer the most ambitious of objectives, we MUST REJECT the allure and the elusiveness of comfort in the 𝑪𝑶𝑴𝑭𝑶𝑹𝑻 𝒁𝑶𝑵𝑬👌🏾💪🏾

PS: This is the reality lived by some of us who've come from worlds fraught with utmost of risks, in instances got to "live" in the darkest of the underworlds - darker than the earl of hell's waistcoat - weighed down my debilitating mental illnesses, and came out stronger, and to thriving lives.
PLANATE MGT GLOBAL'S founder and President, USA Navy legend and Veteran, Chris Decker is a one such story.
The same can be said of my friend, Invictus Games Foundation's and Prince Harry's Global Advisor on Veteran's Affairs, and truly a thriving Veteran, David Wiseman.
Yours truly, Byron Adera's story locks step too 🙏🏾

𝑭𝑰𝑹𝑺𝑻-𝑹𝑨𝑻𝑬 𝑨𝑪𝑪𝑶𝑴𝑷𝑳𝑰𝑺𝑯𝑴𝑬𝑵𝑻𝑺 𝒅𝒐 𝑵𝑶𝑻 𝒔𝒑𝒓𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒇𝒓𝒐𝒎 𝑻𝑯𝑰𝑹𝑫-𝑹𝑨𝑻𝑬 𝑨𝑺𝑷𝑰𝑹𝑨𝑻𝑰𝑶𝑵𝑺 ~ Byron F. Adera, Okewgi LUANDA MAGERE 🫡💪🏾

𝑰𝑵 𝑺𝑬𝑹𝑽𝑰𝑪𝑬, 𝑰𝑵 𝑺𝑻𝑹𝑬𝑵𝑮𝑻𝑯: 𝑯𝑶𝑵𝑶𝑹𝑰𝑵𝑮 𝑲𝑬𝑵𝒀𝑨’𝑺 𝑾𝑶𝑼𝑵𝑫𝑬𝑫 𝑽𝑬𝑻𝑬𝑹𝑨𝑵𝑺

PLANATE management group is not just connecting people - a meeting of beautiful hearts is what you'd call the gathering at MUTHAIGA Country Club that brought together veterans, esteemed researchers in the fields of peace, security, philanthropists, and many others who brought along their greatest of vibes to the luncheon.
Being a part of the main panel of speakers, sharing the podium with Generals, Planate's Global President and other esteemed panelists, was quite an honor. I didn't get here by some fiat; as a servant of humanity, and leading the BA CHALLENGE that has extended support to Veterans for years, and personally having endured and overcome the ravages of mental illnesses, I was honored by the call to share my LIGHT with the "world", and on this stage.

The BA Challenge has since inception advanced its unique blend of initiatives that have seen us involve vets and families of the vets in our ventures, in a way, speeding up recovery and integration efforts, a template that was found very impactful and novel by 𝐈𝐧𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐬 𝐆𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐬 𝐅𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 (𝐈𝐆𝐅)'s Global Advisor to Prince Harry, David Wiseman. Our joint adventures, indeed partnership with IGF and Forces Help Africa have also gone a long way in bolstering our reach, and creating conditions for wider exposure to our vets

𝑯𝒆𝒓𝒆'𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝒀𝒐𝒖:
𝑾𝒉𝒐 𝒊𝒔 𝒂 𝑽𝑬𝑻𝑬𝑹𝑨𝑵?
WHEN we say Veterans, we are not merely referring to simple "retirement" from military service; the word VETERAN carries several layers of meaning that go beyond a simple career change, retirement or an "abandonment" of active service. To many, "Veteran" isn't a title chosen at a convenient finish line - it is a status often forged through circumstances beyond one's control.

Indeed, considering the "impact" of the lives of those called "veterans" to the general society, you arrive at interesting crossroads; to some (spouses, siblings, children), they are inadvertently invited into a world of horror, and yet others, to beautiful stories of resilience, overcoming, limitlessness, service beyond self, if even larger-than-life milestones that seem mythical.

Therefore, Veterans form a very sensitive part of any population that are honored, and if I can be too brave, lucky enough to have "this" part of their citizenry that "answered" to the highest call to serve (for some, even paid the ultimate price while at it) their nation(s).
Veterans are not defined by the length of their service or how they left, but by the act of serving honorably.

𝑫𝒆𝒆𝒑𝒆𝒓 𝑰𝒔𝒔𝒖𝒆𝒔
𝑾𝒉𝒚 𝑴𝒖𝒔𝒕 𝑾𝒆 𝒄𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝑴𝒐𝒓𝒆! 𝑾𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝑹𝒐𝒍𝒆𝒔 𝒅𝒐 𝑾𝒆 𝑪𝒐𝒍𝒍𝒆𝒄𝒕𝒊𝒗𝒆𝒍𝒚 𝑷𝒍𝒂𝒚 𝒇𝒐𝒓 "𝒃𝒆𝒕𝒕𝒆𝒓"?
Veterans walk carrying the Weight of Service: For some, "exit from active service" wasn't an option.
The transition to civilian life can be a forced shift after years of high-intensity service, where the "bowing out" was dictated by the needs of the military or the toll of the mission.
The burden of this weight shows in difficulties to adjust, a disorder that gets worse when Vets don't have a supportive community, or lacking in systems to help with reintegration back into the society. Simple things like "Thanks for your service," or "I can only imagine how much you gave for me/us," to actively getting involved in their plight in support of their transition go a long way.

𝑨 𝑳𝒊𝒇𝒆𝒍𝒐𝒏𝒈 𝑰𝒅𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒕𝒚: Unlike a typical career where you leave the job behind, being a Veteran is an indelible change in identity - it is a LIFE CHANGE. It’s not a "former" status; it’s a permanent one that carries the weight of everything experienced during that time. Perhaps, with more awareness, we become better "conduits", and bridges between the Vets "past", to their desirous liveable present and future selves.

𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑰𝒏𝒗𝒊𝒔𝒊𝒃𝒍𝒆 𝑺𝒄𝒂𝒓𝒔: In today's world where vets stand in the gap in the fight of wars and other disruptors of our peace, a bulk of Veterans therefore are those who didn't come home merely changed, but who came home carrying invisible (war) scars.
Mental illnesses of sorts that Veterans endure are not just personal health challenges and "threats" to their productive living, but they also manifest in ways that affect those around them, and the society in general.
Being a part of a Veteran's recovery journey, providing a shoulder to lean on can be as powerful as creating conditions for one's survival quite practically, if preventing a loss of life.

In conclusion, as a society, appreciating that we are increasingly living in challenging times - there's wars all over, insecurities abound - and that we have a part of us standing in the gap for ALL of us, should inspire us to honor those who "give more" on our behalf: 𝑨𝒍𝒍 𝑮𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒔𝒐𝒎𝒆, 𝑺𝑶𝑴𝑬 𝒈𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒊𝒓 𝑨𝑳𝑳.

𝐒𝐄𝐂𝐔𝐑𝐈𝐓𝐘 𝐌𝐄𝐄𝐓𝐒 𝐒𝐏𝐈𝐑𝐈𝐓𝐔𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐘 ✝️

𝐄𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐂𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 🎉 are just ending, and christian faithfuls were yet again reminded of the significance of this period - Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem, his arrest, crucifixion and burial, and eventually, His resurrection from the dead.

NOW, from a security perspective, and with a closer look at Jesus' confidants (Judas Iscariot, Peter) and enemies alike, considered within a narrow compass of the role of the "SOLDIERS" - the identification of Jesus by Judas, the attack on a soldier by Peter et al-we arrive at very interesting viewpoints: There's a sense that the ROMAN SOLDIERS played a very pivotal role serving as the direct instrument for fulfilling numerous Old Testament prophecies regarding the Messiah's death and divinity.

𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐝𝐚𝐲! 𝑺𝒕𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒃𝒚 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒎𝒚 𝑵𝑬𝑿𝑻 𝑷𝑶𝑺𝑻 𝒂𝒔 𝒘𝒆 𝒃𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒌𝒅𝒐𝒘𝒏 𝒔𝒐𝒎𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒊𝒏𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆𝒔 (𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒔𝒐 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒓𝒐𝒍𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑹𝒐𝒎𝒂𝒏 𝒔𝒐𝒍𝒅𝒊𝒆𝒓𝒔, 𝒄𝒂𝒍𝒍 𝒊𝒕 𝒔𝒆𝒄𝒖𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒚 𝒐𝒑𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒐𝒓 𝒊𝒏 𝒈𝒆𝒏𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒍) 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒐𝒖𝒕, 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒍𝒐𝒐𝒌𝒆𝒅 𝒂𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒓𝒐' 𝑻𝒐𝒅𝒂𝒚'𝒔 𝑺𝒆𝒄𝒖𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒚 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑺𝒂𝒇𝒆𝒕𝒚 𝑳𝒆𝒏𝒔𝒆𝒔 .....

BUT TODAY, walk with me as we expand the boundaries of this discussion by looking at the NEXUS between SPIRITUALITY & SECURITY... SHALL WE?

Think about this: Much has changed since Jesus walked on Earth, but the more they have remained the same. Even more profoundly so, Centers of Worship and the human populace continue to suffer from insecurities and disruptions of safety. And your PLACE OF WORSHIP, maybe your own person could be NEXT.

𝐒𝐄𝐂𝐔𝐑𝐈𝐓𝐘 𝐢𝐬 𝐝𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 - security is not just the absence of trouble, but the presence of God's peace (John 14:27) and a sense of calm regardless of external circumstances. Spirituality on the other hand centres security as a resident of that beautiful intersection of inner resilience, ethical frameworks, and the search for meaning in a volatile world.

All signs were that the month of love was not gonna end without something quite astonishingly powerful happening: This was exactly the case yours truly received, and honored an invitation to "preach" security to Deliverance Church International's Delta Security, and more fittingly, from the ALTAR.
And you can safely add that this "solemnization" was overseen by a very senior DCI official, the National Coordinator, Rev. Dr. Margaret Muchai.

𝑻𝒉𝒆 "𝑴𝒂𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒂𝒍" 𝑷𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒏𝒆𝒓𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝑺𝒆𝒄𝒖𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒚 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑺𝒑𝒊𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒖𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒚 𝑫𝒆𝒇𝒊𝒏𝒆𝒅
The concept of security is the history of creation itself. Order, extremely keen and methodical placement of "materials" by God, including "lighting" (let there be light) bore all the hallmarks of a "defined" environment.
Now shrewdly studied and employed by security sleuths, the concept of 𝑪𝑷𝑻𝑬𝑫 (𝑪𝒓𝒊𝒎𝒆 𝑷𝒓𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑻𝒉𝒓𝒐𝒖𝒈𝒉 𝑬𝒏𝒗𝒊𝒓𝒐𝒏𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝑫𝒆𝒔𝒊𝒈𝒏) remains God's foremost consideration in creation itself, and of not just mankind and the universe, but all there is to KNOW about Security & Safety.

𝑺𝒆𝒄𝒖𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒚 𝑪𝒐𝒏𝒄𝒆𝒑𝒕𝒔 𝑺𝒑𝒊𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒖𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒛𝒆𝒅
👭👬𝑴𝒖𝒕𝒖𝒂𝒍 𝑺𝒖𝒑𝒑𝒐𝒓𝒕, 𝑩𝒂𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆, 𝑨𝒍𝒍 𝑹𝒐𝒖𝒏𝒅 𝑫𝒆𝒇𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆.
When Cain killed Abel, the insecurity suffered birthed the concept of "brother's keeper", a powerful, yet often ignored buddy-buddy system which counsels balance, mutual support, surveillance, all round defence and protection, among others.

🕸️𝑳𝒂𝒚𝒆𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝑺𝒆𝒄𝒖𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒚
Layered Security as a concept of security is to be found in the "Tent of Worship" where carefully selected 212 Levites were "deployed" by prophet Samuel and King David. And what's more, from access control, to more serious guard duties "at" the special rooms and treasuries, to key handling and rotation patterns are an exhibition of extremely keenly defined security programs.

🏥𝑩𝒖𝒊𝒍𝒕 𝒊𝒏, ⚒️𝑵𝑶𝑻 𝑩𝒐𝒍𝒕𝒆𝒅 𝑶𝒏
And yes, whereas security and safety can sometimes attract a level of nonchalance, their import cannot be downplayed; ignoring security and safety in instances, invite heavy suffering, loss even death: "You can evade reality, but you cannot evade the consequences of evading reality," Ayn Rand.

🧐𝑰𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒍𝒍𝒊𝒈𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆
Mordecai was less regarded, even ignored. It was until his rather game changing intelligence saved King Ahasuerus' life. In a rather beautiful twist of events, Mordecai's story is celebrated annually during the Jewish holiday of Purim.

The rather novel idea to "hibernate" in the pr******te Rahab's house by two Israeli spies, and the resultant rich intelligence obtained from a rather "dismissible" figure, enabled the successful onslaught on Jericho.

I am sure you're now seeing more clearly the nexus between security and spirituality.
Rest assured there's a world of meaning when you consider the two as marital partners, and yet there's quite a world yet to explore when you learn "at" the feet of the two, and with yours truly as the PREACHER.
