Mosese thinks that the government is going to release him after he gives a true testimony,only for him to stay in jail with allegations of possession of illegal drugs,protesting against violation of human rights during Adika's funeral-the coffin should not be carried by students,weeping in public is illegal.His disillusionment came out when he talked to Jere."I said everything in mitigation.All I had to say,but it did not help..."

During Tumbo's Visit to Regina,he sends jusper for drinks,talks with him about writing the play and Jusper remembers to return change but Tumbo tells him to keep change because he knows that students only have money in theory. Jusper comes downstage and shows the audience money and says ,"The fruits of independence.We get them second hand."This comment shows that he is disillusioned because they do not enjoy the fruits of independence as they would have expected.
