Without a national policy, peace building efforts can’t yield much

By RAPHAEL OBONYO
If politicians are serious about the peace pronouncements they are making in the campaigns rallies, which was also the rallying echo in the recent peace conference in Mombasa, Parliament should pass the proposed National Policy on Peace Building and Conflict Management.

It is lamentable that the policy drafted five years ago has not been adopted, despite its great significance especially taking note that the nation is still divided along the ethnic lines that triggered post election violence in the last election.
