Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 79102, member: 636"] The Kenyan government is keeping a bunch of places locked down for another month. Interior bigwig Kipchumba Murkomen extended a major security order for thirteen specific zones in Marsabit County, calling them disturbed and dangerous. This kicks in officially, adding thirty days to a prior declaration. The affected spots are all Hillo areas: Gorgora, Orofa, Walkite, Tanzania, Irress Abamartille, Gootu, Tessum Qalicha, Karray, Hudda, Qoranjido, Irress Shindia, Rabaalee, and Godde Haroressa. The national police chief, Douglas Kanja, followed up with his own rule saying everyone living there has to hand in any guns to the nearest police or government office immediately. They promise to give the weapons back once the order gets lifted. Over in Narok County, things are also messed up. Officials slapped a dusk-to-dawn curfew on Trans Mara East and Trans Mara South after violent fights between communities. At least seven people are dead from clashes around Angata Barigoi and Lolgorien. A regional commissioner stated that over two hundred families were displaced when more than a hundred twenty houses were burned down. He told everyone the fighting needs to stop immediately, claiming security is now boosted, so people can go back home. This is actually the second curfew there in just a few months, following similar violence before. The decision for Narok came after a security review by top police deputies and other interior ministry staff. They officially labeled those Trans Mara areas as disturbed and dangerous, too. Authorities are warning they will not put up with any more inter-community conflict, saying they have three locations covered to prevent new attacks. [/QUOTE]
