Many years ago, when my career in journalism was just taking off, I needed an excuse to spend the holiday season at the Coast instead of at the office in Nairobi. I hit on the idea of offering my editors stories about the people who worked over Christmas, while many of us were out engaging in festivities. Basically, the municipality is offering long-distance public transport operators an opportunity to get their vehicles checked in the cause of public safety. However, while most are chilling out, there is a bunch of people who are very hard at work, the criminals. Enjoy your holidays and don’t forget: There has been only one Christmas, the rest are anniversaries.
