Eastern and central Africa’s safest town

Recommended Posts

Insecurity-hit Nairobi has lessons to learn from the safest town in East and Central Africa — Garissa. It has been described by the International Police as the safest town in the region, yet Garissa, the seat of North Eastern Province, is legendary as Kenya’s trouble spot. Located 380 kilometres north-east of Nairobi, the town is the gateway to the expansive province.

 

In days gone by, nobody could venture into the town without security escort. In fact, Ukasi Centre, located on the Mwingi-Garissa highway, carried the heavy symbolism of the divide between the so called Northern Frontier District and “Kenya”. Here, vehicles had to be kept for hours before being escorted to Garissa in a convoy as the region became synonymous with banditry.

 

That’s no longer the case, and the town could well be a model of how cattle rustling-prone areas of North Rift and Upper Eastern can be rescued. Perhaps, what has not changed is the harsh climatic condition. And the landscape. As one descends on the smooth road down the high ground overlooking the town, buildings dot the undulating valley that hosts the town, giving a spectacular view.
