The general state of security in Kenya can be said to be average. Many Kenyans, especially in urban centres, spend a lot of money on private security for their homes and premises. This appears to be fairly deterrent against theft and burglary. However, there is another form of insecurity that manifests itself in the form of flare ups of clan or tribal animosities. Cases of attacks, death and displacement of persons from their homes appear to be recurrent in certain areas such as the Nandi-Luyia border, Maasai-Kisii border, between the Tugen, Marakwets, Pokots and Turkana – not necessarily in that order. Some forms of animosities appear cultural and have been baptized ‘cattle rustling’. The most deadly and feared form of insecurity is that perpetuated by organized groups such as Al Shabaab. This group appears to strike unnoticed and cause a lot of damage. Their attacks on Cooperative House in 1998, Garissa University College and on Dusiit shopping complex are cases in point. The Government of Kenya, like other governments, spends a lot of money in putting security measures in place. These attacks leave in their wake loss of lives and serious destruction of property, not to mention immense fear visited upon the rest of the population.
All these forms of attacks are usually planned and fairly well co-ordinated. Probably, there are many people out there interested in peaceful co-existence and who would love to report such plans before they are executed but they fear for their lives. They require an anonymous and secure reporting system to support government efforts.
