Kenyan opposition leader wants troops out of Somalia
|
Coalition for Reforms and Democracy leader Raila Odinga says it is time for Kenya to withdraw its troops from neighboring Somalia. The former Prime Minister who addressed members of the Somali community in Eastleigh said the continued stay of Kenya Defence Forces soldiers in Somalia is hurting Kenyans.
"It is high time the Government should evaluate whether there is any reason to still have our soldiers at Somalia. Does their continued stay in Somali bring peace to our country?" he posed. "We went there because there were many attacks then by the thugs."
President Uhuru Kenyatta has insisted that he has no intention of withdrawing the troops from the war torn country until they accomplish their mission.
Odinga also challenged the Government to enhance security instead of launching ad-hoc operations that are allegedly targeted at one community. "The kind of operation we saw here was discriminatory; this should not happen," he argued.
