| Subject: Kenya: Criminal-politicians inciting herders to invade ranches Sun Apr 23, 2017 8:44 pm | |
| NAIROBI — The Italian-born author and conservationist Kuki Gallmann was shot at her Kenyan ranch and airlifted for treatment after herders invaded in search of pasture to save their animals from drought, officials said Sunday.
...The association has accused politicians campaigning for the August elections of inciting the herders to invade the ranches, saying the owners’ leases have come to an end and that herders can take over the land and distribute it among themselves. Opposition leader and former prime minister Raila Odinga said ranch owners deserve protection under the law like all Kenyans, citing “apparent helplessness of the government that is clearly unable or unwilling to bring these attacks to a stop.’’
