TRUTHDIG’S JOURNALISM REMAINS CLEARBBC:
The BBC’s Adam Mynott in Nairobi says Naivasha, which witnessed brutal scenes on Sunday, is once again a battleground between rival ethnic communities.
Here, many of the attacks are said to have been carried out by Kikuyu clan members in retaliation for earlier attacks.
In one of Sunday’s worst incidents, 19 Luo people were burned to death in a house they sought refuge in, after being chased through a slum by a gang of Kikuyus, police said.
The storytellers of chaos tried to manipulate the political and media narrative in 2025, but independent journalism exposed what they tried to hide.
When you read Truthdig, you see through the illusion.
