Shock and sadness engulfed Kanyilum village in Nyando sub-county in Kisumu as villagers and Miguna Miguna’s family struggled to come to terms with his deportation to Canada.

Old women wailed, some barely able to walk, as chanting youths protested with placards, breaking the silence around the village.
