Download Can Kenya solve Haiti’s gang violence?
Over the last few years there’s been a surge in violence between police and gangs in Haiti, with an eyewatering 80 percent of the capital Port-au-Prince under the control of gangs.
The government has been calling for international intervention but its neighbours including the US have opted to keep out.
So why has Kenya decided to get involved? It has offered to send 1000 police officers to lead a multinational force.
For Africa Daily, Alan Kasujja looks at what the force will be dealing with if approved by the United Nations.
