Nadapal is a community in the north of Turkana County, Kenya near the border with the Eastern Equatoria state of South Sudan. The Nadapal belt is an area stretching southward from the border with South Sudan to Lokichogio in Kenya.〔 The village of Nadapal lies on the road between Narus in South Sudan and Lokichogio. The area has been the scene of violent clashes between Toposa and Turkana pastoralists, traditional rivals.〔 It is becoming a vital border crossing as trade between Kenya and South Sudan booms following independence.〔 ==People== A June 2009 assessment of Nadapal by the UNHCR said 90% of the people in Nadapal were Toposa. The assessment incorrectly placed the village in the Narus ''payam'' of Kapoeta East County, South Sudan. The mistake may be because the Sudan People's Liberation Army (SPLA) had a presence in the village, and the Toposa people mostly live north of the border. The village chief estimated the population was 3,500 including 300 returnees from the nearby Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya. Most of the people were IDPs from Jongole State. The majority of people were pastoralist.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nadapal」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
