4:31 pm
can be done about it. till we head over to namibia where we need to design i was inspired by the traditional. people and later on. trust and more along be takes us on a tour of a whole city can shuffle in g. our. report is about a pressing issue radicalization why do young people especially young men give up everything they have to join a terror organization to explore that question our reporter johan for nia traveled to kenya where he spoke with a former fighter the coastal town of mumbai it was regarded as a tourist paradise for many years but now terrorism is a real threat in kenya is the second largest city. blue for two years for the terrorist group the former christian converted to islam
4:32 pm
and went to somalia as a foreign fighter. now he speaks out for the first time about his radicalization and how he got away from. for security reasons we need to cover his real identity. it's a b. type. like you see you have kids don't go to school. yeah unemployment. that beach. and all sixteen. because they don't have jobs to love to just sit around with for. a terrorist recruiter promised mohammed five hundred dollars monthly to fight in somalia he accepted like many others he saw his recruitment as a job the only way to flee from poverty mohamed was then trained in mombasa and
4:33 pm
sent to somalia you know and used to shoot ten million thomson to the border you step does she do not that a bit. even shoot about women is one pomade remember there was a pregnant from a woman a woman was dead but i could see a baby crying mommy mommy mommy mommy mommy mommy. and myself was destroyed. mohamed managed to escape but he was wounded back in kenya he was given amnesty. but others still undergo the same recruitment has up to date based security expert . there are people who are still being groomed. their group that are being. radicalized dead a lot of videos flying around messages fly in and out targeting. people
4:34 pm
that is basically the poor youths. just ten minutes away from the mombasa city center lies to sony mohamedan who was radicalized here the sony is known to be mumbai says tara but there are people here who want to change that the man who study mahmoud is fighting radical priests trying to convince the young and angry at there is a peaceful islam as it was a. solution to what we just told them that they've been getting along as a taishan of the koran similar thoughts. as leaders why just watching as our young people suffer jumbled muscles we decided to give them the right to their protection of the koran they had in mind in a minute we have to study mahmoud tries to solve the problem of radicalization inside the community but his efforts are often nullified by the police the constant raids nurture terrorism rather than eradicating it says up to date. the government
4:35 pm
has just given them you know killed and then sold them and then the national park to be done by the by the. boards now for sue for disappearance is what is now causing a lot of people unlawful routes in mombasa to be more agreed to what joining and been radicalized than being on the government side and thinking about their country but mombasa has indeed become a safer place for that because of or despite the police intervention mohammed is now supporting the authorities that was the main condition for his amnesty he now wants others about the risks there is nothing like all you will gain because on. find a good share only teach you on fasts. stay away from. people who might feel you know i'm muslim. i do have money but you don't know where the income comes from but as long as poverty prevails there will be young africans
4:36 pm
who follow the call of money law enforcement alone will never make places like mombasa northern nigeria or other parts of africa more peaceful. islamic radicalization is a major threat not only in kenya but also in many other african countries like nigeria and mali for example in this week's streets debate our reports are a did kill money is in mumbai so when she brought the police and young people together to discuss the issues you just saw that many of the fighters join extremist groups not because of religion but because they want to risk over tea without thinking about the consequences so what can be done to prevent. it's one of the most beautiful places in kenya and it is also the port city that's
4:37 pm
where we are right now but it's also become infamous over the last couple of years because of terrorism what started off as piracy has now grown into home bred radicalization and that's exactly what we want to address today is it still a problem and if so why so we're going to begin with mr alfred here he says he is a youth leader do you think that radical radicalization is still a problem in this county. cannot. inclusion is a process. i would say where we were five years ago you cannot. they're going to come. and share our platform with all of us before it was not. before it was a bit difficult even accessing some of the offices for some of us i would say it is at least a step in the right ok so the youth representative says we're trying but i know someone here who is not very happy with what's happening but to tell you from
4:38 pm
government's side security analyst some of the actions of the government took you know just or had some few people who. are part of this problem so if every time you disappear. is blamed on the government and nothing is done that because this disappeared that way that a family that reality that you know the people who are left behind will not be friend is that the government definitely there will be nothing grievances that can be exploited by the terrorist to recruit or to force those people into the picture ok so it's a county commissioner coming to you mr obvious telling us not to talk about. that the root causes of terrorism have not been addressed and it will always research what are you safe. the issue of you the disappearance this is an issue that i didn't discuss that led we think that the three ways to which this issue should be
4:39 pm
addressed why we have a policy of a state of forty which is the conducting investigations into some of these cases to that is the judiciary. when there were never such cases happen. you know that is also the police as you saw all these avenues are open but the question is and you know for everyone here do you trust your government to do you trust the police do you trust i mean as you know you can't answer you can't also question that's not meant to be yes so so so do you do you trust your institutions would you happily go to them if anyone approached you to maybe try and recruit you there's a gentleman here who's been wanting to talk for a while let's hear what he has to say you can feel or sense. that there is no trust between the police or the destruction of the local nation and a lot of people fear great information that they take to the police station and myself because time. you corrupt government officials
4:40 pm
leaking information so you fear when i go and say this to morrow somebody comes in follows with ok but he's going to commission i don't know if you had that but there were a lot of accusations that leveled against the police correct we have that challenge what i'm saying is that to give that information to dispose a book on this us you have called me and my county commission i have left my office because my being here with the youth i say what does duty quite well alfred alfred i want to look out good i mean i was ok. on the right here mr police called commissioner has to want to more do you require i come from an area that i you know there is a forum going on a very remote area what do we as. those people so you want to better communication exact ok so we've just heard that the responsibility now falls back to the
4:41 pm
community to the young people that you've been given all the resources the police commissioner has opened his doors for you so what can you do as a young person from mumbai to try and eliminate this problem the reality is just understanding that equalization from this perspective you will find that many of us are. easy targets we have to say religious leaders who are also not ready to bring up young religious leaders we have different not ready to pick. to become a leader so that when you're going to go so out of that. still be telling him and we've been told that's one of the problems is religious leaders not grooming younger ones is that generational gap but i know that you actually teach religious studies in one of your mosques now how important is that in a community like this some of the critical mind of a masonic one of. your own was a clean one was there when the quad tag was
4:42 pm
a seventy nine and we're going to criticize me for that concert a few months ago and i you know survival but. i manage a measurement miscue do and within a month or so. when we move that demi moore is a seizure of young august i want to restore a morning in my second and you know in a moment i'm a pastor thank you so much i want to give a few more people the opportunity to say what they think about this matter before we close i see a hands that's not fit that when you called me to a meeting you have involved me who will say that it has been a process yes involving very youth but as the youth of mumbai we feel we are not there no when you called me on the table and asked me what are the youths going through what are some of the issues you would need to be addressed what drives you think we have driving the youth to join our show. bob at that level when we are discussing that i'll be able to provide because they know i'm part of the youth who are being recruited but i'm part of
4:43 pm
a youth. in our constituency which is at risk of being recruited because when in mombasa everyone is at least ok there were some other solutions from way come from those once a billboard of the youth that are wanted but that dangerous or i don't reject a billboard of the youth. you had equalised they are jumping. to get into schools to speak to the youth i mean. is a very big thing we do know that you're not even aware so they're jumping maintenance of these young girls that's an interesting suggestion turn the villains into heroes thank you to everyone who joined me right here at fourteen oh i'm getting clips and it's right here that we're trying to figure out how to win this new battle of our generation radicalisation moby head the solutions and thank you all for to.
