KENYA-DROUGHT-LIVESTOCK-POLITICS-OIL-WATER

A Turkana herder rounds up his goats near Lokitaung in northern Kenya's Turkana county where a biting drought has ravaged livestock population on March 21, 2017.In just a few years water, oil and money would flow. Roads, schools and hospitals would follow. Turkana's generations of poverty and neglect in Kenya's arid north would end. But it was not to be: five years after the discovery of oil, and four since a giant aquifer was found, drought has struck again, shattering the dreams of a different future for Turkana, a bone dry region of dust and stone, home to mostly semi-nomadic livestock herders and lacking the most basic trappings of modernity. / AFP PHOTO / TONY KARUMBA (Photo credit should read TONY KARUMBA/AFP via Getty Images)
