*Obadiah and Bradford are pseudonyms.

*Nicolas and Mike were the only white people in the office. They appeared to hire people from across the spectrum of Kenya’s tribes and religions. When I asked if that was for reasons of equal opportunity, Mike replied, “That, and it’s no good to have just one tribe. Then it’s too easy for them to maneuver anything.” In other words, with one tribe there would be more employee solidarity. Also, Mike explained, they could speak to each other in their mother tongue instead of Swahili or English, so “you wouldn’t know what they are saying.”
