Part 4: Nowhere is Safe – Living Under Constant Threat

For the South Sudanese trapped there, Naivasha Camp was meant to be a place of refuge, but it has turned into a hunting ground. Armed groups raid homes at will, searching for money, phones, or anything of value. The most vulnerable: widows, orphans, and the elderly are the easiest targets. Families sleep in fear, knowing that at any moment the door could be kicked open, and everything they have left could be taken.

There is no law, no protection, and no escape. Some residents have tried to resist, only to face brutal beatings and sometimes execution. Others have been forced to flee with only the clothes in their backs. With war looming on all sides and no safe place to run, Naivasha’s refugees remain trapped. They are defenseless against both war, and the criminals who prey on their suffering.

Part 2: Children of the Camp – Starving for a Future

In Naivasha Camp, childhood is defined by hunger. The innocence of play has been replaced by silence, weakness, and the haunting cries of children too malnourished to move. Families survive on nothing but water or tea, clinging to the hope that their children can hold on just one more day. Without immediate food aid, Naivasha’s youngest will continue to perish. Every missed meal brings them closer to the edge. We must act now.

Part 1: Voices from Naivasha Camp | The Harrowing Reality

For two years, the people of Naivasha Camp in Omdurman—primarily South Sudanese refugees—have lived on the edge of survival, forgotten by the world. No humanitarian organization has come to their aid. No government has acknowledged their suffering. Trapped between warring factions, they face starvation, disease, and relentless violence. Their only lifeline is the generosity of relatives abroad, but even that is not enough. As death becomes a daily reality, those who remain are left with one desperate plea—help us before it is too late.

Part 5: Trapped Between Borders – The Perilous Journey to Safety

Many South Sudanese in Naivasha have sold everything they once owned for a chance at escape. But the road to safety is just as deadly as the war they are fleeing. Those without valid documents (refugee id cards) risk arrest, execution, or disappearance. Cars filled with desperate families vanish on the road, their fate unknown. Even reaching the border is no guarantee of safety. For South Sudanese refugees, there is nowhere to turn, and no country willing to claim them.
