This submission was sent by our own Moderator, Father Joe Healey, from Kenya:
Due to the present crisis in Kenya, proverbs are being used in the daily newspapers every day. Here is one from yesterday's (13 February, 2008) Standard Newspaper:
"They will have to hang together or be hanged separately."
Play on the two different meanings of the word "hang." Refers to power sharing (sharing of power) between Mwai Kibaki and Raila Odinga as the only viable option to solve the present political crisis in Kenya.
