in my view sheng is a language that has developed in the recent times only to ague that it is so primitive that many may not see the sense in qualifying it has a language
  • it is used in the cosmopolitan/ metropolitan areas were there are many languages that are spoken by different people
  • it intergrates the many languages hence simplifying communication 
  • it is easily understood among the youth considering kenya has up to 42 tribes speaking different tongues.
  • it has developed to the extend that poetry is crafted in sheng
we should not shun sheng rather help develop and mould it to a better language
