Kenny Kapinga I am known to pick people from out of the blue and start raving and ranting about who i think they are and analyze them from my point of view. Today i had Kenny Kapinga in mind, a former top police officer who many had thought from his ascendancy through ranks at the Botswana Police Service was only a single step away from being Botswanas next Botswana Police Commissioner. I happen to liken this man to Moeng Pheto who was a well known advocate of juniour soldiers welfare, a trait that had him posted to the same post that the seemingly vocal Kapinga had been posted to prior to him being relocated to Zimbabwe, Harare where he is understandably doing well for the Zim- Bots relations. Born in the same month as Nelson Mandela, Kenny is not one to be intimidated or brow beaten into accepting what his conscience tells him to not be correct. I would assume that his firm and freely displayed christian believes made him feel for the junior officers at The Police Department. These are a rare breed, the likes of Pious Mokgware whose love for humanity first as parents and then as Nation builders makes them very precious to the future of this country. Kenny Kapinga holds a Masters Degree in Criminal Justice Studies, he went to the University of Portsmouth and graduated from the FBI National academy in the USA. From this mans free interaction in Radio stations in South Africa and his relaxed attitude in mingling with peoples of other Nationalities, there is a Kenny Kapinga in the future running of this country. I will be blunt here, the man is a rebel. A revolutionary and a good and honest son of Shakawe who harbours no ill feelings about his Hambukushu tribesmen being excluded from the so called major tribes. He is a man content and secure with what His Lord has blessed him with including his two sons whom he loves dearly. He is a family man with much stability in his social life making him a clean role model for those behind him. I chose to write of him today because i have realized in his posts that despite his being posted or thrown outside the country to limit his negative influence on Botswana, the man has chosen to stop being a vegetable couch and has since started emitting his essence to all of us through the social media. He is a case in point of how to responsibly and objectively use facebook. Most elders including some leaders of Political parties prefer to hide from the public and expect to be understood when they once in a while berate incomprehensibles in freedom squares. A polite man he is too, not one to be drawn into nasty arguments even though he has a few things to say if he doesnt like something. I remember we once differed sometime ago where i deliberately falsely accused him for implying that i was a moron. Kenny promptly clarified the matter stating clearly that he would never call anyone a moron, i was taking notes and those were points scored by this well traveled fellow countryman who happens to also have a pint of mischief in him. Look at his profile picture, that is an amazing land feature in Petra, Jordan, what does it resemble from Kennys camera point? You be the judge. I have also noted that not many folks on fb follow this great mans hidden messages as he keeps track of his Countrys developments. This man speaks against the DIS, The DCEC, the Khama usurpation of land and the Corruption that is destroying this country. His studies in Criminal justice place him above looking the other way when the very custodians of the law, lawmakers are the ones leading in breaking such laws. Lastly, i would The subject to change nothing in the way he has been interacting with us, updating us about his exploits, travels and gala dinners. I would also like fellow facebookers who are both serious minded and want to see every good citizen of this country take this Nation forward to send friend requests to this noble man. The man doesnt know me personally, he only knows me as a Police officer which he should, but writing this article is as much a shock or surprise to you reader as it is to him. Who knows, tomorrow it might be you, so be real, be yourself and we will tell all about who you are. Chiefwhip.
