WHAT CONDITIONS ENCOURAGE THE FORMATION OF MILITIAS?

Various conditions can contribute to the formation of militias, both officially sanctioned and unauthorized groups. These conditions often stem from perceptions of insecurity, lack of governmental control, and societal divisions.
Here are some of the key factors that can encourage the formation of militias:
1. Weak or absent state control
  • When the state's control over certain territories is weak or absent, communities may feel the need to organize their own security forces to protect themselves.
  • For example, some countries have deliberately supported the formation of local self-defense militias in areas with limited state presence to counter threats from insurgents, as seen in Colombia and its CONVIVIR program.
2. Insecurity and violence
  • Rising insecurity, including violence by criminal organizations or armed groups, can prompt communities to form militias for self-defense and community protection.
  • In one study, communities facing insecurity due to the withdrawal of the state army, and driven by a desire for revenge, actively encouraged militia participation among citizens, who were rarely motivated by economic gain but instead by victimization by foreign-led armed groups.
3. Political instability and distrust in government
  • Political instability, particularly in countries with weak institutions, can fuel the emergence of militias.
  • When citizens lose trust in the government's ability to provide security and maintain order, or perceive it as corrupt or overreaching, they may turn to alternative forms of organization, such as militias, to protect their interests or resist perceived threats.
  • This can include militias forming in opposition to the government, driven by anti-government sentiments, as seen in the United States, or groups forming to defend the government against state elements attempting a coup, as seen in Libya.
4. Economic hardship and social factors
  • While not always the primary factor, economic hardship, along with social factors such as social exclusion, marginalization, discrimination, and a sense of displacement, can contribute to individuals joining militias, according to some studies.
  • These groups might provide a sense of belonging, purpose, and camaraderie, particularly for young people who feel alienated or disenfranchised.
5. Ideological factors and radicalization
  • Militias can also be formed based on religious, tribal, ethnic, or ideological grounds.
  • Radical ideologies, fueled by grievances, opposition to policies, or world events, can lead individuals to perceive threats to their identity or values and find justification for violence.
  • Propaganda and online engagement can reinforce these radical ideologies, leading to further radicalization and mobilization into extremist groups.
It's important to note that the term "militia" can be used to describe both sanctioned, organized groups, such as the National Guard in the United States, and unauthorized, private paramilitary groups. The motivations and consequences of militia formation can vary depending on the specific context and whether they operate within or outside the legal framework

10 Subaru Vehicles carrying 4 personnel per car

So about 40 or so riders.

Uongeze 2 for drone duty

Another 10 or so to walk the streets alongside the convoy/ posted at strategic locations on convoy route.

Uongeze like another 30 - 40 boda boda riders

You have a Bonafide militia.
 
A quick look online at prices and we find

Subaru outback -> 1.2 million to 5 million
-> Free if you steal them.
BodaBoda -> 40 - 100 thousand
-> Free if you steal them

Radios/walky-talkies for communication

Other costs (Food/Fuel/Salaries etc...)

So with KES 50 to 100 Million

You can TECHNICALLY run Nairobi.
