8,000 Rift Valley IDPs Demand New Homes

[The Star] MORE than 8,000 families of Internally Displaced Persons in the Rift Valley have pleaded with the government to complete their resettlement before the general election. They include families evicted from the Mau, Embobut and Kipkurere forests along some victims of the 2007/08 post-election violence. "It's only eight months to the polls and we are losing hope of ever being resettled by the government. It will be unfortunate for the next elections to find us homeless," said Paul Kinuthia on behalf of the IDP
