The world of night runners remains a baffling tale still told in whispers and low tones. The mere mention of the word ‘night runners’ sends chills down many people’s spines as it comes with damning imaginations of unusual faceless naked individuals who run, dance and even lurk with wild animals at night around people’s home steads casting spells and creating state of fright.
Not many night runners have ever wanted to associate themselves with the act in broad day light and they therefore prefer to conduct their operations in the night when many people have retired to their beds.
The question many people have been asking is this, How many Night Runners are there is Kenya?
Well, according to qikipedia, team behind the BBC TV show QI, Kenya has 2.6 Million people who regularly participate’ in the sport of naked night-running.
