The Northern Rangelands Trust (NRT) has been cleared of allegations of grave human rights violations including killings, forced disappearances of people, intentional “fueling” of ethnic conflict, and corruption, among others in northern Kenya.
An enquiry led by Dr Paul Kanyinke Sena, a Kenyan legal and human rights scholar and Director of the Indigenous Peoples of Africa Coordinating Committee—a network of Indigenous People’s organisations in Africa, absolves the Trust of any wrongdoing and all the allegations in the Oakland report, saying it found that “none of the allegations levelled against NRT could concretely be substantiated.”
