The results did not matter as the 400 runners turned up to compete for peace, said Tegla in a phone conversation with Switzerland: When I visited here in September, people were killing each other but now, the two communities have embraced peace.”

The Conflict over natural resources and utilization of the waters of the River Tana has been contentious for a while, leading to frequent clashes by pastoralists and farmers in the County. In September the TLPF already mobilized over 60 professionals from Tana River to travel to the affected areas to preach peace. Today 1500 people took part in the three-day Peace Activities, among them reformed warriors from Uganda, Sudan and West-Pokot, Kenya.

From Switzerland, ON Running had sponsored 100 Pair of running shoes as prices.
