Mandera residents divided over curfew


By MANASE OTSIALOMore by this AuthorThe dusk-to-dawn curfew imposed on Mandera County has elicited mixed reactions from residents, with some commending the move while others showed displeasure. Those who supported the move argue that it will deter terrorist from freely roaming in Mandera town and its environs and thus reducing attacks. Mr Boncha said Mandera town is too exposed, creating easy access for militants from Somalia, noting that strict measures were long overdue. He, however, blamed increased attacks on residential areas in Mandera town on lack of police patrols at night. "The government should protect Kenyans by any means including checking all people in Mandera town,” Kenya National Union of Teacher (Knut) Mandera County Secretary Kullow Mohamed said.
