Sad: Not even POPE FRANCIS’ pleas would stop these youths from doing this:

Wednesday, 02 December 2015 - Despite a passionate plea by Pope Francis to Kenyan youths to shun tribalism, the vice recently reared its ugly head in a local university that has since been indefinitely closed down.  

Maasai Mara University students were recently sent home for an unknown duration of time following tribal attacks that left scores injured.

Apparently, trouble begun after students from the two differing tribes hurled stones at each other after a football match that was supposed to mark the end of the cultural week in the Narok based varsity. 

Police had to be called in to intervene and contain the situation.

However, things went awry wrong the following day when a group said to be from the Maasai community stormed into a hall where students, predominantly from the Luo community, were watching an EPL game between Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea, and started attacking students haphazardly causing a wild rush out of the hall.

A number of students were injured during the attack, prompting the administration to close the varsity.

The violence was witnessed just a day after Pope Francis urged the youth to use their ears, mind and heart to fight tribalism.
