operation to disarm the clans. no one can put an exact number on the dead. certainly hundreds died, possibly more than a 1000. but the army was brutally efficient at this. passing the bodies. only a handful of photos made it out of would ye silent testimony to the atrocities committed the police and government officials will still more talk to get answers to what happened in ne province. both then and now i have to go to the capital naval residents of my problem is still refer to it as going to kinda night will be the melting pot, where every one of kenya's, $42.00 tribes, rob, shoulders in what is meant to be equality promoting the idea of unity has been one of the primary goals of kenya's. leaders says independence. the parliament cut is the motional moto, uncut face of the 1st president, who said jermel,

kenyatta had omby a swahili word meaning altogether. but the capital statues tell a different story. they pay homage to the big men who have held absolute power since independence. kenyatta whose son oh, who is now president and more who oversaw the consolidation of the one party state in the 2 decades following kenyatta duff in 1978 more without any attempt at subtlety, mid the tribal room go or club the symbol of his will for it it was more who was president when my home was bond in 1980. but for people from carissa it's jiji kerry yuki moiz outspoken minister for internal security who is seen as particularly responsible responsibility. he still denies it or somebody she might people be cute to the course of land that you ask yourself.

are you jen when you would, you ask in the people not to comes the government to not of taken up, but there was collective punishment. there was a dripping of women, there were kill collective punishment if killing of women children grouping women. you know, bonding houses. what time i see a friend problem. so my person like you they have never been on this to themselves to after them few questions, asking themselves questions though you put women and children in one corner so that you can deal with a bunch the buddy truly like on the cup of the innocent people how do you do it? you have to find a way of floating them out. but i did. are they going to allow you to do? because i did come at night heat and roy but people

a q these the computers and whatever you keep busing, they're missing. what do you people does e own community. you need to tell them that with 1980 your visits and to get his her and the, the newspaper, the lady that the daily mission off the 11th of november, 1980 quoted you are saying as i was on the aircraft. yes. i saw some houses were monday if and but our forces must be commended for showing. there was a train because their forces anthem was that the fire was beaten by, but it is a deal of the water acting over a ducky. deals with duck teacher or diffuse. bye bye, bye birdie. known to conventional fight tough. i was a victim of the goddess almost. yes. and i remember that night not seeing an abundance but soldiers. government soldiers putting my, our house,

my home on fi on under killing on mavis. you're kidding port on many people. many. and if people died, oh, look at where they were in san leandro, said mowdy with a mighty login to feed even people. short, many people died. but when you asked kennedy confident, boy, we know east that the bodies were dropped in the tanami. well, i was, i was in our down north. take you to for me. are you saying no one died in gunner let another people drive north if you go to the purchase of oh, i'm one was wanted to magick can you can ask him exactly what happened on that fateful mike. speaking to him, hearing what he had to say. his continued defence up to, to day. i think his just continuing on with the government cover up. and i don't believe much of what he said, i don't want mix these attitudes harder to accept now is that kenya is been tough

changed in 2007. the bloody violence following the contested election results graphically illustrated. the deep seated tribal laboratory in this country, when the dust had settled on a compromise, government of national unity was put in place. an attempt was made to finally confront the political violence of canal passed. integral to this process was the truth justice on reconciliation commission based on the south africa model for the victims of the shift, a war on the massacres in garrison woodyear. it was the 1st official recognition of their suffering. mohammed l. me is now a politician in 1984, he was one of those who came to the assistance of the men who has kept them must again, would do what i saw this. and what has remained very distinctly in my mind to day

is a pile of bodies b for my right or wrong. and to make it, people cut it oh, at another body to put on the pile. and believe in all these thunder, the problems of the past would finally be addressed was to be short lived in october, 2011 cannon forces embedded somalia, provoking the bladder. backlash bows, shabby that guide obsolete. that group that controlled much of the country. this was the 1st time kenya's troops had crossed its borders in anger. it was to be a costly adventure. and it's costly both not just in terms of the financial cost of

his country, but also to the fact that tom, we had subsequently not being able to deal with the aftermath of the mission. because it was clear that once you went after terrance to groups like the ones in somalia, then no they would tend to attack of the country. and we have seen that town after that invasion the level of attack in, but you will an artist and brokerage in monday on with dea county and gary's that has been significant. how has that changed the economic and political environment in the country? there's generally being a growing and ease about so man is in the country and down there has, in fact, been in puts of their country like nairobi dead, incidences of attacks against tamales. but whenever an explosion, kelley, honestly, aud in town anyway, i saw that is resentment. you know, that, that they said the people were causing this as somalis,

we have also been guilty of tribal prejudice during the colonial era. we saw selves as distinct from kenya's, other tribes unfold to be categorized as issue as indian. some at ups walk other than african and dubious privilege for which we paid higher taxes and go to live here in italy. the area of the capital then resolved for ations, like so many other somalis. this was the 1st place i arrived in nairobi when i came here to study. when the civil war started in somalia $99.00 to $1.00, italy was the natural refuge for many of the families fleeing the fighting awning itself. the nickname, little mogadishu, kenya also plays hostile a half a 1000000. more somali said the dub refugee camp between goodies on the border with some money. this combined with the 2011 ambition and the memories of the shifter war mic for a little mix. at best,

we have seen us people of dubious loyalty. at was, i'll sham up. these mistrust was gruff, clearly straightened on the 18th of november, 2012. when i come to my touch, the mini bus kenyans used daily, full transport, was blown up on the outskirts of, isn't it? a yan somali man was seized and beaten by the comb. within minutes there were running bottles between somalis. an answer money's the looting of shops, rape and beatings were a grim reminder of how little hus change in my home. and it took the police several hours to intervene by which time the damage had been done. much to the anger of the islam community, like the residence of gary's, how they suffer from both the violence and the failures of the kingdom, police, who seat as a somali problem. what has there been more successes yet? why have you not

a friend of any of the culprits or cutting all these killings and bombing sofa is because of the fact that the community does not open up and remember, is that people from one community, whether you have so miley, from k. now, just from ali, from somalia, these are bread that people from one community. so you know, you know, the history of this origin that must cause cut it out by government security officials. now, when you look on that and the collective punishment that's been going on to, is this not a continuation of the failed policies of the past? you should ask yourself a way to hang about all those months because you're talking about we have not had you condemning situations where individual kill office or collecting revenue canada revenue authority officers have been killed in that region. there had been killed by the police that we must have had to buy the locals . we're not hearing you talking about police my seconds, but the locals. it's therefore ally,

it's therefore exaggeration. it's therefore in descent to, to, to blame government for primitive actions carried by lockers in tile. i'm going to ship, i'm going to sell. i went on kill this policeman. it's me. it's not the entire community, but it is the community out faithful. and these people are coming from the community and that's what we're talking about. openness. nobody is even condemning the money community police because for you information just did. no, no, no. it's important to be attentive. i said it is members of the society of an office of the for as an office of the service and as an officer of the law, it is my responsibility to protect the people. and we've done it quite abundantly. the day after the riots in italy, violence would again often get his on the outskirts of the town cities,

soldiers from the cannon miniature was shot dead when they stopped their truck to change a tire. within hours, my hometown was once again on for it's no coincidence of the target of the military's vengeance was carissa central market. the same study collective punishment with the same results. 5 months later, the markets roof at the list is back on. this is the entrance to the market. it's called the duck market. it's where fall them over the dental garza usually come to find their livelihood. the trainers have received no composition and the bitterness runs. the market was completed but done, and people who are punished even some of them were killed. that did. not all this has happened to you. do you still feel that you are canyon? i'm canyon. nobody can change me from the i'm korean,

but i bet employed, armed forces have created all that. not even, sorry. there's nobody came and say so what happened was, when we're, you know, we're getting lucky now. hello, flying of this woman. most of the things she had in the fire, and she saying now she doesn't have any more. she was selling household items. i was told where she was, i'm in total, she lost about 800000, which is about $10000.00. now she says she lives hungry, most of the thunder ah, the following day, the anger and frustration of the population towards the police and the military adopted. i'm de la. he bought a close friend of mine since childhood on a gover official tried to harm the protestants. on will shortly when the ministry

a country recall our own 05 months later i found myself reporting on the was k dot talking night will be more lives torn apart by violence. as a kenyan, i watched these scenes with horror. as a kenyan somali, i feared the buckling president will huddle, kenyatta hussle, to reassure us that the country is united unto levant. i learn why the distinction between terrorism and his love. i hope this is true. i hope that some good can come from this terrible tragedy. and we can finally move on from the mutual suspicion and mistress of the shifter
