The population of the Somali people of Kenya
Ethnic Somali people inhabit exclusively 3 out of the 47 counties of Kenya and are a significant minority in 4 others. They are the absolute majority in Garissa, Wajir and Mandera counties while they form a significant minority Marsabit,  Lamu, Isiolo and Tana River Counties. Despite being a marginalized group due to their distinctive features, Somali have 2 cabinet secretaries slots and the majority leader who is the third in command in the current Jubilee government. This makes the Somali the third most represented tribe in the Kenyan government, just after the Kikuyu and the Kalenjin. The population census conducted in 2009 also put the population of the formerly North Eastern Province at 2 300 000 (excluding the significant number of Somalis living in most urban centre's especially in Nairobi and Mombasa). Therefore I find it absurd for Wikipedia to put the Somali population even after combining with other cushitic groups at 2%. From the facts stated above and according to the last population census conducted in Kenya, it's obvious that the ethnic Somali people of Kenya constitute not less than 10% of the Kenyan population.
