Lobby urges calm amid rising political tension in Isiolo
Action for Sustainable Change (AFOSC-Kenya) has appealed for calm in Isiolo County following concerns over growing political tension.
In a statement, AFOSC-Kenya executive director Mohamed Sheikh urged leaders to put aside partisan interests and embrace dialogue to safeguard peace and stability in the region.
He noted that sustainable development can only thrive in an environment built on peace and mutual respect.
He warned that Isiolo’s progress is at risk if politics is allowed to divide the community.
The organisation, which has previously championed peace and dialogue initiatives in the North Eastern region, is now urging Isiolo leaders, citizens and stakeholders to take a similar path to ease tensions.
