In Kafira, injustice has been brought about by those in authority. Many people are killed in an clear circumstances and others in cold blood. The citizens have already lost hope with its leaders. However, a few citizens have decided to keep the government under pressure and a good example is Jusper.

Jusper is a University student studying philosophy.He is the son to Doga and Nina.He is one of the brave characters we have in the play. After the death of Adika, he is put in charge to guard the grave,it is during this time that an intruder Chagaga, sub chief's brother comes to interfere with it,he fights and kills him,throwing him into the river and later tells it out.

When Mulili murders his parents Nina and Doga, he swears revenge to correct the governance situation in Kafira. In spite of the dangers he exposes himself to,he continues challenging the government. He takes part in writing the play and thus his fellow students brand him a traitor though he knows he is doing it in order to get a chance to revenge against the government.

The desire for justice requires people who are not ready to give up. Jusper symbolizes such people and his play finally leads to change in the government.
