Very sad that we have such things in Kenya, where politicians are among the highest paid in the worlds and for what? Heckling and playing comedy. Where are their MPs? Where is the govt here? Why does it not take care of its citizens instead of bickering day in day out. We kenyans need a complete mental overhaul.We should stop listening to politicians' crap and push them to address these issues.BTW,is that hut really 1m in circumference?!?!Otherwise good and eye-opening report.
all as Kenyans in Turkana suffer, their leaders are in Nairobi politicking 24/7. To imagine these people have an MP pocketing 6 figure tax free salaries n living it up in Nairobi. Having 6 course meals, their children schooling in the best schools money can buy and being spoilt by the latest technology.
Kenyans cant we see that we are getting fucked up by these good for nothing politicians.
@karuitha Am with u on this one.Terribly sad to see our brothers, womenfolk and children suffer so much through no fault of their own.The GOK needs to come forward and address this situation fast before it spirals out of control.Ngilu where are you?
@thuraku ask yourself, who is the area MP? I can bet you that this area's allocation of the CDF is still lying in the treasury uncollected. That money is enough to dig bow holes for these people. Give these people water and they wouldn't have to walk for miles looking for it. They waste so much time walking which could be used doing productive things
MAY BE KALONZO MSIOKA AND KIBAKI COULD HAVE USED THAT MONEY FLYING AROUND AFRICA "SEEKING FOR PEACE" TO FEED THESE PEOPLE FOR A MONTH!!! I DON'T THINK TURKANA PEOPLE FOUGHT ANYONE!! RAILA CAN ALSO SELL HIS HUMMER AND DO THE SAME!! SELFISH MUTHER FUCKERS!
why is 'turkana' synonymous with death and hopelessness? entire North Kenya needs a paradigm shift..>exchange those AK 47 for books; > desist from roadside dev. > avoid cameras (Turkana are the most photographed people and for the wrong reasons) why is it all aid flights from Wilson head to Lodwar? GoK, Media, NGOs and UN....than Darfur and Somalia? to do what?
harsh? I am and about time...no gov't will think for you!
watching this clip can make one cry!..it is so sad!..is this really Kenya??!!..why do this people have to suffer every year in such a way!!..this is inhuman at worst!!...where is that millions of CDF going to since 2003??...the government needs to wake up!..its terrible..i pitty this people!!
There must be something right that goes on in Turkana..to an urbanite this is catastrophe and death...it is not! ask them how they coped since creation? Answer: traditional mechanisms...now u help them support those cultural interventions. Lorries of Jogoo corn meal, bottled water and faked pity are not the solution. D yu ask CDF or MP what they doing about it? report that too...serikali si Kibaki it is YOU
@siasabora CDF I know it works, just ask Peter Kenneth and Gatanga people. If these area really has an MP, who I think is living it up in Nairobi, he will make sure that CDF money is used to either dig bow holes or bring in piped water to these people. Give them water and the rest will sort itself out.
The gvt is strange, instead of improving lives of these people they spend millions unnecessarily compaigning allover Africa (Kalonzo & group) just to benefit a few individuals, bure kabisa.
