Exposing Fraudulent and False Kenyan Census Records July 16, 2007 by Gur Gharri GSG News  contributor

The proposed new constituencies by the Kenyan government supposedly depend upon population counts. However, if the government’s own records are full of false and fraudulently created statistics, how one can trust anything that comes from Kenyan government files? Therefore, the Electoral Commission of Kenya (ECK have lost credibility and we shouldn’t have any faith in its records.

According to The Standard News agency reports. Mandera Central/ El Wak District projected population was estimated at 147,324. However, according to 1999 Kenyan official census records, the Mandera district population was 250,372

Just view the following figures regarding Mandera Central Population Figures by Division and or locations. How could one justify that, while the Ashabito population was 33,034, the El Wak and Rhamo combined populations are 27,209? This is nothing more than preposterous fictions that were paid by the foreigners in order to legitimize their presence in the Gharri land.

*Sources: 1999 census. 

Also, the 1999 Kenyan census records shows that the Banisa Population was 38,411, but,

the Takaba division population was recorded as 9,668. Here again how can the Kenyan government justify these records? Are they able to furnish local records that were obtained by local workers recorded from the fields? Probably not. So, You the readers, be the Judge. Therefore, if the Kenyan census records are fraudulent and fictions in its entirety, then creating new constituencies is also fraudulent because, it is created based on false records that were intended to legalize land grabbing as a legitimate way to obtain land. Think about it.  Just look at the Kenyan official census count of 1999 Mandera Central population break down by locations as listed on the above figure. It should be stricken and declared as nil and voided
