Betrayal
is a trait that ruins relationships . Discuss the validity of the statement
with close reference to Francis Imbuga’s play “Betrayal in the city.”
i.
Mulili
betrays boss by denying their close kinship in the palace coup when his life
appears to be in danger. He disregards all favor he ever got from Boss and consent to his shooting.
ii.
The
government betrays its own people. Doga and Nina’s deaths are authorized by
boss for their persistence on what is their right to carry out a shaving
ceremony. Rather than protect the citizens it kills them.
iii.
Jusper
betrays Tumbo when he takes advantage of the opportunity given to him to write
he play meant to entertain the state visitor. He writes a play that would pave
way for a palace coup.
iv.
Regina
betrays Mosese’s principles when she goes ahead to see Boss Petition for his
release against the brother’s wishes.
v.
Boss
betrays Kabitos’ loyalty to him, when he believes Mulili’s allegations and
orders his killing.
