The number of al Shabaab recruits from Lamu being murdered by militants in Somalia is rising. Operation Linda Boni director James Seriani said recruits from Lamu are no longer trusted by the militia. He said, as a result, many recruits from Lamu have been killed by the very militia they went to join. “We have reports that at least six recruits from Lamu were killed by al Shabaab in Somalia after they were suspected of being spies. For some reason, the militia appears not to trust recruits from Lamu and that’s why we are warning youths against joining al Shabaab,” Seriani said.
