Does PLI have a vision for other countries in the future apart from East Africa?
Yes we do! In the year 2000, the Kenyan government through the United Nations sent a peacekeeping military force to Sierra-Leone, West Africa to end the civil war that had toned the country for a decade. The war started in 1991, initiated by the Revolutionary United Front (RUF) led by Foday Sankoh. This resulted in tens of thousands of deaths and the displacement of more than 2 million people. The Kenyan army had started some schools, churches and sports clubs during their time in Sierra Leon trying to restore lives in the villages. They were later forced to abandon these projects upon their return to Kenya after their peace mission in West Africa.
