In Kenya, there has been a struggle between the Kalenjin and Kikuyu ethnic groups over how land should be used. The Kalenjin are traditionally herdsmen and want to see the land used for herding. The Kikuyu are mostly farmers and want to see land used for farming. The colonial authorities (the British) used much of the land for farming and the many of the Kikuyu bought the land from them when they left when Kenya got independence. The two groups were then left together to sort out the problem in the new country. Violence has sometimes resulted from this disagreement.
