Modus Operandi of Oppressing the “Savages”: The Kenyan British Colonial Experience Abstract Colonialism can be traced back to the dawn of the “age of discovery” that was pioneered by the Portuguese and the Spanish empires in the 15th century. It was not until the 1870s that “New Imperialism” characterized by the ideology of European expansionism envisioned acquiring new territories overseas. The Berlin Conference of 1884-1885 prepared the ground for the direct rule and occupation of Africa by European powers. In 1895, Kenya became part of the British East Africa Protectorate. From 1920, the British colonized Kenya until her independence in 1963. As in many other former British colonies around the world, most conspicuous and appalling was the modus operandi that was employed to colonize the targeted territories.

  • Taming the Intractable Inter-Ethnic Conflict in the Ilemi Triangle
    International Journal of Innovative Research and Knowledge Volume-3 Issue-7, July-2018 INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF INNOVATIVE RESEARCH AND KNOWLEDGE ISSN-2213-1356 www.ijirk.com TAMING THE INTRACTABLE INTER-ETHNIC CONFLICT IN THE ILEMI TRIANGLE PETERLINUS OUMA ODOTE, PHD Abstract This article provides an overview of the historical trends of conflict in the Ilemi triangle, exploring the issues, the nature, context and dynamics of these conflicts. The author endeavours to deepen the understanding of the trends of conflict. A consideration on the discourse on the historical development is given attention. The article’s core is conflict between the five ethnic communities that straddle this disputed triangle namely: the Didinga and Toposa from South Sudan; the Nyangatom, who move around South Sudan and Ethiopia; the Dassenach, who have settled East of the Triangle in Ethiopia; and the Turkana in Kenya. The article delineates different factors that promote conflict in this triangle and how these have impacted on pastoralism as a way of livelihood for the five communities. Lastly, the article discusses the possible ways to deal with the intractable conflict in the Ilemi Triangle. Introduction Ilemi triangle is an arid hilly terrain bordering Kenya, South Sudan and Ethiopia, that has hit the headlines and catapulted onto the international centre stage for the wrong reasons in the recent past. Retrospectively, the three countries have been harshly criticized for failure to contain conflict among ethnic communities that straddle this contested area. Perhaps there is no better place that depicts the opinion that the strong do what they will and the weak suffer what they must than the Ilemi does.

  • New Appointments to Drive Growth at Rift Valley Railways in Kenya, Uganda
    New Appointments to Drive Growth at Rift Valley Railways in Kenya, Uganda The Board of RVR unanimously taps Brown Ondego to take charge of external stakeholder relations and set broad strategy as former Chief Operating Officer Darlan De David assumes duties as CEO; additional appointments strengthen Ugandan management team and stakeholder relations function in Nairobi Nairobi/Kampala (4 November 2012) — The Board of Rift Valley Railways, which holds a 25-year concession to operate the Kenya-Uganda railway, has unanimously voted to appoint Brown Ondego as Executive Vice-Chairman with responsibility for governmental and regulatory relations. Simultaneously, shareholders have appointed former Chief Operating Officer Darlan de David as Chief Executive Officer. Ondego joined RVR in 2008 as Executive Chairman as the original concession agreement stood imperiled. He worked closely with the new shareholders and the regulators to successfully revise the shareholding structure. The two-year project paved the way for a targeted capital expenditure programme of more than USD 300 million to increase volumes and revenues significantly over the next five years and transform the Kenya-Uganda rail concession into a functioning, reliable service for the benefit of the East African people. Ondego, who had been appointed CEO to take on more operational responsibility during the first year of the capex programme, now resumes his original strategic function as Executive Vice-Chairman of the Board, where he will oversee external stakeholder relations in addition to setting the company’s broad strategic priorities. “We have made strong progress at RVR in the past four years, but considerable work remains. I look forward to working with Darlan in the years ahead as we build on a strong track record of accomplishment since 2008,” said RVR Executive Vice Chairman Brown Ondego.
