The Government of Kenya has declared an all-out war on dangerously armed terrorists linked to the Alshabaab militants who bear the greatest responsibility for the atrocious murder of civilians and security personnel in Lamu and the general Boni Enclave in recent times.
Information from the Interior Cabinet Secretary’s communication team indicate that numerous plots by the Alshaabab and its network have been uncovered and neutralized ahead of time, but several of the attacks have succeeded, resulting in the brutal killing of innocent civilians and security personnel within Lamu County and the Boni Enclave generally.
Security and Intelligence agencies are as a result appealing to the public to volunteer information that will lead to the arrest of thirty five (35) masterminds of the terror network responsible for the deadly terrorist attacks in Lamu County and the Boni Enclave generally.
The 35 terrorists being sought are connected with the placement of Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) on various earth roads in the area; the killing of civilians along the Lamu-Witu-Garsen Highway; the cold-blooded murders of civilians at Lango la Simba, Witu, Mpeketoni, Juhudi, Salama, Hindi, and other areas; and the attack on the American Millitary Base at Manda Bay on 5th January 2020.
The suspects, whose photographs have been circulated in the mainstream print media and posted on official online platforms of the Interior Ministry and the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI), are ordered to surrender to any Police Station within the Republic of Kenya immediately.
A substantial cash reward is on offer to any person who provides credible information leading to the arrest of any of the suspects.
While the arrest or neutralization of these terrorists remains the most immediate objective, other measures and strategies have been put in place to win the war against terror in Lamu County, the Boni Enclave and elsewhere in the entire Republic.
