The 3-day peace, consultation and reconciliation forum between the Kenyan and Ethiopian communities has culminated today with the communities developing a peace agreement/resolutions on peaceful co-existence, following tension experienced last month. From Moyale-Kenya, 6 communities were represented while the Garri/Somali community came from Ethiopia Region 5.
Present were government officials from both countries, peace committees, inter-faith leaders, youth and women.
Over the weekend, PACIDA under its Education thematic area, with funding from Caritas Germany spent time distributing reference/supplementary books and teaching aids to primary schools within Moyale (Qalaliwe, Uran Godha), Saku (Karare, St.Teresa's) and North Horr (Hurri Hills) sub-counties.
PACIDA also through Kindersmissionswerk gave sponsorship to needy students from Moyale (OMC Sec.-4, Butiye Sec-2), Saku (Cavallera Gilrs'-3, Moi Gilrs'-5,Marsabit Boys'-4), North Horr (Ruso mixed-3, North Horr Girls-4, Chalbi Boys'4, Maikona Girls'-5).
In both the exercises, the pupils and students respectively promised to put more effort in studies and have better academic outcomes.
PACIDA with other Civil Society Organisations in partnership with the County and National Governments, organised and celebrated International Day of Peace in Moyale.The theme of this year is "The Right to Peace". The chief guest was the Deputy County Governee, Hon.Solomon Gubo who called on everyone to uphold peace.
