CS Fred Matiang’i Reveals Names Of 9 Al Shabaab Terror Financiers
Interior Cabinet Secretary (CS) Fred Matiangi on Wednesday published the names of nine Kenyan nationals linked to terrorism financing.
The Interior CS also ordered the freezing of the funds and properties of the nine individuals, saying they have been financing Al-Shabaab militia operations.
โAs part of our comprehensive counter terrorism strategy, we continue to disrupt terrorist operations with a sole focus on bringing to book the perpetrators, financiers and sponsors of these reprehensible acts in line with our national laws and international obligations,โ said CS Matiangโi.
The listed Kenyans are:
- Halima Adan Ali
- Waleed Ahmed Zein
- Sheikh Guyo Gorsa Boru
- Mohammed Abdi Ali (Abu Fidaa)
- Nuseiba Mohammed Haji
- Abdimajit Adan Hassan
- Mohammed Ali Abdi
- Muktar Ibrahim Ali
- Mire Abdullahi Elmi
The Interior boss said that the Al-Shabaab militia remains the single biggest threat to Kenyaโs and global peace and security.
โKenyans now face blatant, increasingly complex, and evolving terror threats, particularly from Al-Shabaab, whose aim is to attack, destabilise, and distrust our way of life.
The CS said that Al-Shaabab continues to plant operatives among civilians to advance its agenda through recruitment and radicalisation to violent extremism and terrorism.
