Letter to the President

by Feòrag

Kenya: The wife of Archbishop Gilbert Deya has been arrested, and he is clearly feeling somewhat stressed. He has written a bizarre letter to Kenya's President Kibaki claiming that Satan has confused Kenya, and that God would now curse the country. The letter includes a potentially serious allegation of attempted rape by police officers but, unfortunately, the tone of the letter makes it too easy to dismiss this as the rantings of a deranged nutter:

The letter full of invective and cant accused the government of throwing away the glory that God had planned for the country. Your wicked, demonic police, who might have been trained by the devil from hell are attempting to rape the holy Woman of God. Your unfaithful government have taken their evil hand, laid it upon my family and disgraced me and my children, Oh Kenya! You are doomed, you are cursed, warned Deya.

He also claims that the authorities are failing to spoil the children in their care:

My children are in unhealthy childcare. I am suspecting the type of food they are eating now, the type of water they are drinking and whether their lives are the style I have raised them. Be aware that my children are living a life higher than the care they have been taken to. They eat special food. They are used to their driver, Mr Ototo. They are used to their nannies, their toys and all this they are missing which might affect their future growth, he added.
