Aren’t We All Mercenaries!
Kenyans will always have something strange and exciting to ponder about. The current hot cake is the mercenary saga of the Arturls. One thing that came out very strong is that these guys are loaded. And loaded guys just know how to show it. One of the guys said Kenya cannot be able to pay them if we hire them for the mercenary job. Duh, we as the whole of Kenya are not that poor. Kwani how much money will they demand as payment for which we will not be able to pay them!
The word mercenary has two meanings depending on whether you are looking at it from its noun form or its adjective form. The noun form means “a hired soldier’ while the adjective form means “a person who works for profit or merely for money”
So, let us take it that Kenya does not need some guy from Armenia to come and sort out our problems. Furthermore, why would we hire a guy all the way from Armenia just to come and take some computers from a media station and destroy some property at some newspaper printing plant. That is a job that a normal Kenyan can do. So, lets just say that the guys were not hired as mercenaries and enjoy the shows that they give us.
Its free entertainment that we get especially on our tvs when we watch them do stunts very bravely. One of them actually bragged that he spends up to one hundred and fifty thousand per day on expenses. Our conclusion, either he is just too loaded or a spendthrift.
Lets take the mercenary meaning as one who works solely for money. Don’t we all work for money. I hear you say, well aahh ummm not really, are you sure? Okay, if you don’t work solely because you get paid for it, you either relate very closely to Mother Teresa’s beliefs or you own the company, if you fall in the other category, just admit it, you are a mercenary.
