"For 80-year-old Kiptenai Kosgei, Shadrack Kipkoech used to be his little boy. He’s far from that now. They say he is radicalised. What’s more, he now supports Al-Shabaab. The Counter-Extremism Project states that Kenya is a prime location for al-Shabaab radicalisation and recruitment amid the terror group’s rise in Somalia. 'As early as 2012, reports indicated that al-Shabaab was attracting a large number of Kenyan converts to Islam. By December 2014, it was estimated that Kenyans comprised around 25 per cent of the terror group’s ranks,' it says."
