Stop stereotyping conflicts in pastoralist communities

My attention was drawn to a preposterous article in one of the local newspapers whereby feuding pastoralist communities in the North Rift were labelled as cattle rustlers, cruel murderers and heartless human beings.

The context of the harsh criticism of the article was the present security issue in Baringo.

Those comments amounted to dangerous ethnic stereotyping and were generated out of sheer ignorance and anger.
