Murkomen's Tea for Census Officials Wins Hearts, Sparks Debate ¶
On August 25, 2019, Seneta Kipchumba Murkomen welcomed census officials with a cup of tea, an act that has sparked a mix of reactions in Kenya.
According to a Facebook post by Murkomen, he has a deep understanding of the census process, having worked as a census officer in 1999. He emphasized the importance of appreciating the hard work of census officials, saying, 'Maafisa wa sensa angalau wanahitaji kikombe cha chai.'
Murkomen's gesture has been praised by many Kenyans, who see it as a cultural expression of hospitality towards visitors. However, not everyone has been impressed, with some criticizing the use of traditional methods in the 21st century.
As the census process continues, Murkomen's act of kindness has sparked a debate about the importance of cultural sensitivity and the role of traditional practices in modern society.
