Zimbabwean aid worker killed in Kenya

 

Chirara was coordinating logistics for the WFP who are ferrying aid to

Southern Sudan and Lokichoggio is the departure point for most flights to

Sudan. He has worked for the WFP since 1996 and has seen out assignments in

Iraq, Indonesia, Zimbabwe and Guinea Bissau.

 

A WFP representative in Sudan, Kenro Oshidari, said; ‘We are all shocked at

this savage killing and condemn it in the strongest terms. UN security and

the Kenyan police are investigating this terrible crime.’ Foreign aid

workers have been regular targets of militants in the region.
