Hundreds of Muslims in Nakuru came together in open fields and mosques to celebrate Eid Ul Adha and share meals and other goodies with the less fortunate. Among the animals slaughtered were 100 cows donated by the Turkey Embassy in Kenya through Ambassador Ahmet Cemil Miroglu. Speaking at Barnabas Slaughter House where the 100 cows were being slaughtered before the distribution of meat to all the 11 sub-counties, former Nakuru Mayor, Mohammed Surraw thanked the Turkey government for the donation. “The Turkish Embassy facilitated the delivery of the animals which will be distributed to 2,000 families in Nakuru,” said Tayyip. He said Muslims had a duty to stand with the poor and mosques had identified the families which shall receive the donations.
