Broad day light muggings have now become a fact of life in Nairobi.Photos of innocent Kenyans being pushed to the ground and mugged has elicited reactions from Kenyans especially on social media.
The police have swung into action, and media reports indicate that a number of the dare-devil thugs have been killed in confrontations with the police.
This sends a strong message to misguided youngsters who think that they can continue to harass Kenyans with impunity.
And that is a good thing, thugs cannot be allow to have a free rein to do the unfortunate things that they are doing.
The action that the police have taken is welcome and they should continue with that until Nairobi is freed of these gangs.
