HOUSING FOR THE INTERNALLY DISPLACED

Due to the 2007 post election violence, most of the people were left without houses as more houses were reduced to ashes and a lot of valuable properties destroyed. This lead some of the people to camp in police stations, show grounds and other places they felt were safer. People suffered a lot and ended up being reffered to as the internally displaced. Due to a long struggle in difficulties, the government raised up funds to bring people to their initial status. The people were offered with security back to their homes where fifteen roofed iron sheet houses were set up. This reduced overcrowding of people in such important places such as police stations and showgrounds. People began their normal levels and enjoy life as earlier on.
