Dear law-abiding Walu, (having narrowly escaped the "ex-con" status ;-)
Technology is not about shiny gadgets and software programs, its about people. If the people end up in cells after KRA spends billions on IT systems and other costly whatever-proof this and that, then it may be for no use besides fashionable excuses to spend mali yetu?
Your example further illustrates the potential dangers of patch-worked ICTs to innocent citizens thus, and the account is nothing but all iCt with the "C"ommunication enabler/enhancement role of technology loudly missing. I always thought the Police had radios, mobile phones, and fueled vehicles to reach their "Wakubwas" whenever necessary 24/7/365? How come sometimes they are unreachable?
Again, who should apologize here? Walu, the young officer, or KRA? KRA admitted responsibility which cost you mental anguish, self-esteem, embarrassment, great inconveniences, and family distress, etc hopefully lawyers,
ought help Walu get compensation entitlements from KRA.
Ndugu yangu, I feel your pain.
