For the next few days there will be many road accidents. The most horrific will occur at the rate of one a day because the roads are jammed with cars and because the police have not been as rigid as they should in granting licences.
In addition, the car importers are capitalising on the lax importation laws that allow them to import wrecked vehicles, some of which should never be on the roads. These fall apart after a few thumps. An inspection after an accident will reveal that they were sub-standard from the start.

The suppliers of electricity are going to be caught in a bind. They have decided to make a serious effort to curb the spate of commercial losses only to find that there are people in their ranks. As fast as they attack an area where there is a lot of electricity theft there will be those among them who will with equal alacrity reinstall the illegal connections.
But there is going to be a break when an official actually hears an employee telephoning a community with a warning that a raid is underway.

Another bottom-house abortion will end in a fatality. Again, the police would be reluctant because of the futility in securing testimonies to gain a conviction.
