Njeri Ndiangui, a Kikuyu based in Subukia village, Kenya, joined a Peace Circle. There, she confronted her hatred of the Kalenjin community—deep bitterness and resentments that she’d always held.

Njeri began to reach out to the Kalenjin people, make friends with them, visited and stayed with a Kalenjin family and eventually invited them into her home. This inspired her to lead her local Creators of Peace team to Baringo County, a troubled area where three ethnic communities, the Pokots, the Tugens and the Illchamus, were in a long-standing conflict with one another.
