Kwasa Break-In Numero Dos

Earlier in the week, Kwasa was victim to another robbery. It was a bigger break-in this time. Windows broken, computers stolen, and pots and pans taken from the kitchen were among the missing. It's so frustrating, because people work so hard to provide things for this community and it can so quickly disappear. It was also a little frightening to see that the security bars on the windows were bent so that a person could crawl through; I imagined them being a little sturdier. Since the pots and pans were MIA, the kids could only have one meal for two days: bread. No pap or soup.
However, by the end of the week, the culprits were found. I'm not sure what's happening at this stage, but these men had stolen from Kwasa before, received a second chance, and used it to steal again. This makes me sigh. The good news is many of the items taken have now been found.
