Based on the info in these copied tweets/links, I doubt the attacks will end anytime soon.

Then add the fact that some commission of inquiry was formed but the report is gathering dust somewhere.

Horrifying details have emerged over Saturday's twin attacks
in Lamu and Tana River counties in which 21 people were
killed, with survivors claiming Asian men led the assault.

In Gamba, the killers were of
Middle East descent, ethnic Somali and also coastal Kenyans,
survivors said.

Ali Mohamed, a witness in Hindi, claimed he saw an Arab man
with a long beard and long hair, and that he was the one who
killed victims with a knife once they were tied up.

He claimed the man wore military clothes and spoke fluent
Kiswahili and English.

In Gamba, the driver of the truck hijacked by the gang and
used in the police station raid claimed that two Arab men
stood over dazed captives and ordered that he should not be
killed.
"There were two (Arabs) and young men of Somali origin and
youths from other tribes, especially Mijikenda," claimed Shara
Hassan, the truck driver.

Twelve-year-old Ken Mang'ara was the
youngest victim of the Saturday massacre in Hindi where
attackers targeted only men and boys.

His mother, Priscilla Waguthie, said Mang'ara's two-month-
old sister was spared after the attackers stripped her naked to
confirm she is indeed a girl.

Waguthie said after killing her husband and son, the attackers
looted their shop before setting the house on fire. "They were
not in a hurry. They even took soda and ate biscuits as they
insulted us, saying they wanted to fish for all men of our
tribe," she said.

"They used my mother's phone.

In fact, I called my mother from the bush and one of them, who my mother later told me was an Arab man, answered and said my mother and my wife were okay but they were looking for me," said 37-year-old Joseph Odipo.

Mr Odipo's mother, Elizabeth Indimuli, is a village elder and Lamu County Commissioner Miiri Njenga said he was aware of her ordeal at the hands of the attackers.

Odipo said several police officers and top Government agencies in Lamu called his mother and the assailant answered them but "they did not do anything despite the fact that the attackers stayed in the house for over one-and-a-half hours".

Tuesday, the county commissioner said: "I'm aware of what happened at Mama Odipo's house and I must say as security agents we failed otherwise we could have arrested these killers while they were there."

Mr Njenga also said the police delay in taking action was because most senior officers were new to the area - they were transferred there less than three weeks ago.

Simply, our security forces simply have no drive, no purpose and no motivation to go after the attackers, this is sad!!!

Huh,

If that seems right with you, then Pray

In the meantime try convincing the people in Lamu that it is okay fo Pork and Dpork to be enjoying world cup while they are being butchered!!
Especially that, it is an ongoing problem which could be solved, if only there was PROPER political will.
