It would these Kenyan death squads (alleged) are good for something but it would only take ballsy reporting to actually reap said rewards. And trust that it wouldn't be any of Kenya's timid media houses that would take advantage of the benefits -in reporting on what many a Kenyan whispers (these allegations that is).

Al Jazeera is nominated for seven One World Media Awards ahead of Thursday’s awards ceremony in London. Six of the seven nominations are for programming set in Africa. But the one we are looking at today is set in Kenya and is called Inside Kenya's Death Squads.

In Inside Kenya's Death Squads, officers from four units of Kenya’s counter-terrorism strategy admitted the police assassinate suspects on government orders. According to one officer, police eliminations could run into the hundreds every year. President Uhuru Kenyatta and National Security Council members denied running an extrajudicial killing programme.
