"""Cast the First Stone is a moving story about the pivotal role of the press in the fight for positive change in corruption-ridden societies. It is an indictment of the press and government in the perpetuation of corruption, particularly in developing countries. The novelist has demonstrated great command of the English language, and written the story with a powerful message in a style that is easy and interesting to read. The issues addressed are very relevant to the African society today."" - Dr. Andrew Nyongesa, Scholar of Literature. ""From cutting deals, playing the deadly and selfish games of trampling on the poor to get ahead, to the never-say-die spirit of the poor to get a piece of the cake, Cast the First Stone is a riveting story that illuminates the realities of a corrupt, unjust society!"" - Charles O. Okoth, Teacher and Author of High Tide at Shibale, and A Feast with the Dragon (Burt Award for African Literature 2015 and 2019, respectively)"
