Armed conflicts in Northern Kenya counties have been with us for decades and no regime since independence, has cracked the puzzle. Lives, livestock, livelihoods and education have been destroyed by the spate of insecurity.

Indeed, many residents from this region are amazed when they venture into Nairobi and other safer counties. This should not be the case, because Turkana, Marsabit, Wajir, Isiolo, Mandera, Tana River, Laikipia, Marakwet, Pokot and Samburu residents deserve government protection from internal or external aggression.
