The Samburu people of Kenya have suffered no more police attacks on their villages since Cultural Survival’s visit there in January. While Samburu people remain fearful that the police may resume their assaults, they credit Cultural Survival’s visit and advocacy for the current respite.
Hon. Raphael Letimalo, Samburu East Member of Parliament, wrote:
Cultural Survival is appealing to Kenyan government authorities to halt police operations in Northern Kenya, where Indigenous Samburu villages have suffered brutal police attacks over the last year.
