  • Akiwumi.Rift Valley.Pdf
    CHAPTER ONE TRIBAL CLASHES IN THE RIFT VALLEY PROVINCE Tribal clashes in the Rift Valley Province started on 29th October, 1991, at a farm known as Miteitei, situated in the heart of Tinderet Division, in Nandi District, pitting the Nandi, a Kalenjin tribe, against the Kikuyu, the Kamba, the Luhya, the Kisii, and the Luo. The clashes quickly spread to other farms in the area, among them, Owiro, farm which was wholly occupied by the Luo; and into Kipkelion Division of Kericho District, which had a multi-ethnic composition of people, among them the Kalenjin, the Kisii and the Kikuyu. Later in early 1992, the clashes spread to Molo, Olenguruone, Londiani, and other parts of Kericho, Trans Nzoia, Uasin Gishu and many other parts of the Rift Valley Province. In 1993, the clashes spread to Enoosupukia, Naivasha and parts of Narok, and the Trans Mara Districts which together then formed the greater Narok before the Trans Mara District was hived out of it, and to Gucha District in Nyanza Province. In these areas, the Kipsigis and the Maasai, were pitted against the Kikuyu, the Kisii, the Kamba and the Luhya, among other tribes. The clashes revived in Laikipia and Njoro in 1998, pitting the Samburu and the Pokot against the Kikuyu in Laikipia, and the Kalenjin mainly against the Kikuyu in Njoro. In each clash area, non-Kalenjin or non-Maasai, as the case may be, were suddenly attacked, their houses set on fire, their properties looted and in certain instances, some of them were either killed or severely injured with traditional weapons like bows and arrows, spears, pangas, swords and clubs.

  • Parliament of Kenya the Senate
    April 25, 2013 SENATE DEBATES 1 PARLIAMENT OF KENYA THE SENATE THE HANSARD Thursday, 25th April, 2013 The Senate met at the Kenyatta International Conference Centre at 2.30 p.m. [The Speaker (Hon. Ethuro) in the Chair] PRAYERS QUORUM CALL AT COMMENCEMENT OF SITTING The Speaker (Hon. Ethuro): Order, hon. Senators. We need to determine if we have quorum. It seems we have a quorum. Let us proceed. COMMUNICATION FROM THE CHAIR PROCEDURE TO BE FOLLOWED ON CONCLUSION OF DEBATE ON MOTION ON PRESIDENTIAL ADDRESS The Speaker (Hon. Ethuro): Order, hon. Senators. I have a Communication to make with regard to the Motion on the Presidential Address, this being the third and final day. Before we conclude the Motion, I wish to draw your attention to the provisions of Standing Order No.69(1), which states as follows:- “When the Senate is to vote on any matter other than a Bill, the Speaker shall rule on whether the matter affects or does not affect counties. (2) The Speaker’s ruling under paragraph (1) shall be made after conclusion of debate on the matter but before the question is put. (3) When the Senate votes on a matter that does not affect counties, each Senator has one vote.” Hon. Senators, I, therefore, rule that the subject matter of the Motion being proposed is one of general interest and application. It is, therefore, not affecting counties within the meaning of Article 123 of the Constitution. It, therefore, follows that to the question on this Motion, each Senator is entitled to one vote.

  • Diplomatic Manoeuvre and Kenya's Military
    Africa Amani Journal Vol. 1 | Africa Amani Journal (c) Copyright © 2014 Africa Amani Journal Chief Editor: Mumo Nzau (AAJ) Web: www.aaj.ipstc.org Editing Oversight: International Peace Support Vol. 1 Issue 1| July 2014 Training Centre Email: [email protected] Diplomatic Manoeuvre and Kenya’s Military Campaign in Somalia Author; Mumo Nzau Corresponding author; Maj. Gen. (Rtd) Charles Mwanzia Abstract From time to time, states resort to armed engagements with others for various reasons. War is mostly considered the last resort in the pursuit of the national interests of states. Throughout the modern nation- state system and more so since the end of the Second World War, states have been slow to resort to war. More often than not they may opt to interact with their potential adversaries through peaceful means before to armed campaigns. Such adversaries may take the form of state or non-state actors, which may include sub- national groups, belligerent movements or any other formation(s) perceived to be a threat to state survival. It was under such circumstances that Kenya sent its troops to Somalia in pursuit of the Al Qaeda-linked terror organization, Al Shabaab in mid-October 2011. In practical terms, Kenya did not declare war on Somalia but rather she invoked her right to self-defence against a threat emanating from her important neighbour, Somalia. Invoking Article 51 of the United Nations Charter, Kenya proclaimed self-defence as an inherent right and declared that she had to do whatever was necessary to keep her borders secure from terrorism and economic sabotage.
