Two (2) Nuer Men Slaughtered In Kakuma 4 (Kakuma Refugee Camp)

-

Today the Nuer community in Kakuma Refugee Camp are mourning the loss of 2 energetic men who could have help in the nation-building since most of them had a very bright future ahead of them.

The men were slaughter yesterday night in Kakuma 4, by unknown people in a cold-blooded style. Rumors have it that the men are believed to be working for the government and they are allied to the current South Sudan First Vice President Taban Deng Gai.

The reason for their killing is still unknown but we can only assume that since the Kakuma 4 region is full of supporters Loyal to former South Sudan Vice President Dr. Riek Machar and that might the reason why the two men were murdered.

The Kenyan police and the CID have launched a full investigation into the matter right now seeking for the culprits responsible for the loss of life of those two men.


More to follow shortly………..
