Some days ago, Charles Njagua, aka Jaguar, the youthful Member of Parliament for Starehe constituency in Nairobi, Kenya, went on a verbal rampage.

Amid cheers from the crowd, he threatened to mobilise his constituents to flush out foreign petty traders from his constituency, give them a thorough beating, before marching them to the airport for deportation.
