What happened in Elwak is very unfortunate. AlShabaab conducting an attack using a donkey as an appropriate tool for their operations. This is contrary to the Muslim teachings for the care of animals. #ActionCountersTerrorism
A thread of how Kenya has been employing counter-terrorism effectiveness to block terror mongers’ bid to recruit youth within the digital space

Gideon Kitheka Snr Josephine Kuluo(JoJo) Kenya is indeed endowed with venture capital & universally-industrial human talent that attracts diffusion of global tech companies. Kenya works with such tech companies to remove extremist content & block recruitment efforts on social media platforms
#ActionCountersTerrorism
Terrorist groups are exploiting social media to propagate misinformation and find new recruits by preying on the gullibility of young minds.
To protect our children, it is our responsibility to closely monitor their activities on the internet.

It is not by chance that Lamu has better security and thriving commerce; rather, it is the outcome of several Multi-Agency Security Operations that have reduced the threat posed by Al Shabaab.
#ActionCountersTerrorism
#Alshabaab is our enemy that requires joint efforts to ruthlessly fight to make Kenya safe.
Alshabaab carry out attacks in Northeastern & Lamu to make the areas poor to push evil agenda.
Let's fight terror to spur progress.
