Professor Kimani Karanja experiences numerous challenges caused by failed leadership. These include economic hardship, the loss of his daughter, family breakdown, demotion, imprisonment and emotional suffering. Professor Kimani loses his beloved daughter as a result of the state's inability to provide safe public infrastructure and efficient emergency services.

Introduction. People are always indifferent about the physically disabled in our society and this leads to their suffering. Mbane is an example of a physically disabled man who goes through a lot of problems due to negligence. This is as illustrated in the story A Silent Song. C. i. Physical pain – The less fortunate suffers physical pain alone. Mbane is left alone in a dirty hut, he wants to go out, he gropes towards the door of the hut. He crawls weakly on his knees and elbows. No one is there for him. The pain in his spine and stomach rapidly gathered violence. Sharp pangs from his navel into his body and for one short tormenting moment he was paralyzed. The pain disappeared and vanished with the same savage fury of its onslaught that left him cold with sweat. Even though the pain ended, he knew another pain will come, another attack came, he gave up the fight, let go his chin and hit- his forehead on the dirt of the flea ridden floor. No one was there to help him. C. ii. Bitterness...
