is still arresting Somalis and has now started deporting some of them to Somalia. The trouble occurring is that the talk and actions of the government are condradicting one another. On one hand they are stating they're aiming to rid the country of potential terrorists and other individuals that can pose a threat to the national security of the country but they've arrested and deported 9 Somalis today alone and 8 of them were women, mothers with children. In addition to this so-called security threat there is a crackdown on the immigration issues as well as the increasing number of Somalis coming to live in the country. I think there might be a motive to have an impact on the many businesses Somalis have established there. What the government isn't addressing is the looting and raids that are being done to the Somali businesses. Furthermore there are reports indicating torture and rape is taking place by bandits hiding behind the police or the police themselves.
Kenya has an unstable political reputation in the eyes of the international world with corruption and violence erupting from elections still vivid in the minds of followers of Kenyan affairs. This is an additional blow to their deteriorating conditions that they will live to taste the bitterness of in the near future if they do not put a lid on it.
