The Baccoo speaks

Jun 07, 2009 Features / Columnists, The Baccoo Speaks

Things are exactly as I warned. There has been a shooting in the heart of the city and there seems no end to the senseless violence.
This is not going to be the end of the violence, because anger over some alcohol would see another being killed.
The police are going to get an early lead on both, but the ability of people to escape across the border is going to stall an arrest but not for long. A neighbouring country is going to help.
***************************
Even as the government seeks to protect people on the roads there are going to be those who will continue with their lawlessness. One driver is going to seek to overtake without paying close attention to the oncoming traffic.
One police officer is going to go public with information that such recklessness only leads to a waste of money, since parts would have to be imported for the repairs.
The fatality rate is going to climb in stark contrast to what operated last year.
***************************
Enough is enough would be the cry as the authorities uncover a fraud in a government institution, where some people have already been either dismissed or placed before the courts.
This one would shock even the auditors, because the manner of the fraud would be so simple. The difference is that there would be no clear culprit so an entire department would be sent packing.
