Grave implications awaited
While on tour of western region of Kagera, president Jakaya Kikwete announced scotching earth operation against illegal immigrants. It will involve members of all security services. Who are the targets?
When he announced similar operation in 2006, forests were raided. herds of cattle were seized and auctioned at throw-away prices, women and girls from pastoral communities with Uganda and Rwandan roots were raped by village militias and the victims were simply thrown across borders in Uganda and Rwanda with nothing.
