Aden Duale is a firebrand Kenyan politician currently serving as Member of Parliament for Garissa Township. The veteran politician was once allied to the ODM party before joining President Uhuru Kenyatta led Jubilee Party. He is now allied to deputy president William Ruto UDA party. The vocal MP is arguably amongst the richest politicians in the North Eastern region.
Aden Duale began his career as a teacher before making an entry into the murky world of politics. The former Majority Leader of the National Assembly of Kenya has since built an empire with interests in a number of sectors including hospitality.
Livestock
In 2019, he gave Kenyan’s snippets into his camel and beef lot farms. The MP owns a camel farm in Balambala Constituency in Garissa county. As a member of the pastoralist community, he is proud of his camels. In his Somali community, camels are a symbol of wealth and status.
“A man without a camel is not praised in the after life and the death of a man without camels is not news,” he once tweeted.
Duale also farms other animals including cows, goats and sheep in his expansive farm in Garissa. The animals are reared until they are ready to be sold for meat.
