TURKANA FACTS
The Turkana people are an unreached, nomadic tribe, living in the desert of northwestern Kenya. There are half a million people living in extreme conditions. They live in a dry and barren land with daytime temperatures reaching 50 degrees Celsius. They are controlled and suppressed by witchcraft in need of hope and freedom from their situation. They lack food; water, medicine, education and an opportunity to have a bright future. The women will walk up to 50 kms a day to haul 20 Liters of water back for their families. The children exist on a diet of boiled maise flour and water, most of them eating only once every 2 days. They call themselves the forgotten people.
