It has been a students' election period in most universities.
We have had bitter verbal wrangles, stalemates, feuds and even physical exchanges among our politicians.
In Maseno, aspirants have been attacked by goons and nursing injuries. Gangs have come up and a student was shot days back by a shooter in a speeding car.
In the political sphere, we do not solve issues amicably on a basis of mutual understanding and there are always angry public ultimatums and political partialness.
Our political leaders will always be egotistic, want to be omniscient and omnipotent to everything, to thump their chests upon any issue and even speak on platforms that are not their level.
Politics in campuses are not far from this, and this is where we start building the morass of dirty politics. The campus politics is the origin of all the barf the Kenyan politician spill.
It is the same shambles, wrangles, ethnic divisions that are in play in campus politics. Hiring of goons to perform political goofs is also a vice here.
Eventually, it is such politicians that join our national politics and become part of the political problems we are experiencing.
Students have witnessed various incidences including the one at Narok, recently in Makueni and many other places.
