BBC's Fake And Scripted Documentary On Night Running In Luoland Tickles Kenyans
The much awaited documentary, produced by the British Broadcasting Corporation, on the life of night runners in Luoland has finally been released and Kenyans can't help but notice the lack of truth in the documentary.
Tom Odula, a BBC journalist, and his camera crew follow a supposed night running couple in their night mischief and claim to be the only people to have ever recorded night runners while in action.
People we talked to, and those who have experienced night running by virtue of coming from regions where the ritual is practiced have poked holes at the documentary saying it was anything but real.
For context, read the following story.

First, what I know of these people is that they are supposed to be running naked. Thiring'ing'i. In the company of a leopard. Or hyena.
