Layeni village, Turkana lake, north Kenya
The El Molo are the smallest ethnic group in Kenya, numbering about 300 people. Moreover, most of them are not “real” Molo since they have been combined with Samburu and Turkana bloodlines. So they certainly have the customs of both tribes. They originally settled in the north of Lake Turkana but were forced by the other tribes to move south to the small islands. There are now gathered into two villages, Anderi and Illah, respectively 150 and 70 inhabitants. They live in small huts and only the elder dress in a traditional way. Life is based on fishing, and that is why they suffer greatly of the increasing pollution of the lake.
