Deputy President William Ruto told the international community to support the move and channel finances in resettling the refugees back to Somalia.

Ruto told the World Humanitarian Summit attended by UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon and other world leaders that the camp had become a burden to Kenya and a haven for terrorism and conduit of contraband goods as well as a danger to the environment.

The DP who was accompanied by Interior Cabinet Secretary Joseph Nkaissery and Foreign Affairs Principal Secretary Monica Juma said the country's contribution and commitment to humanitarianism is beyond question.

Ruto conveyed the same message to Ban Ki Moon and Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud who he met at the sidelines of the meeting.

The UN boss urged the international community to commit to halving the number of internally displaced people by 2030.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel and Turkey President Recep Tayyip Erdogan also addressed the conference.
