Turkana North is a sub-county located in the northwestern part of Turkana County, Kenya, bordering Ethiopia to the north and South Sudan to the northwest. This arid and semi-arid region covers approximately 7,500 square kilometers and serves as a crucial administrative and economic hub for the predominantly pastoralist Turkana community. The sub-county is divided into 5 wards—Kakuma, Kalobeyei, Lopur, Songot, and Lokichoggio—each with distinct settlement patterns and development needs. With an estimated population of around 200,000 people, Turkana North faces significant challenges related to water scarcity, food insecurity, and limited infrastructure, though it benefits from the presence of Kakuma Refugee Camp, one of the largest refugee settlements in Africa, which has brought some economic opportunities and international aid. The area's economy primarily relies on livestock keeping, small-scale trade, and humanitarian services, with ongoing exploration for oil and other mineral resources offering potential for future development. For residents and organizations operating in this remote border region, accessing accurate postal code information for its various wards and settlements is essential for efficient service delivery, communication, and administrative coordination.
