The Sakuye are clan of the Oromo people living in Marsabit,Tana River, Garissa, wajir, mandera and Isiolo Counties, Kenya. The 1979 Kenyan census reported this group had 1,824 persons, but Günther Schlee believes this number "is definitely too low". The 1969 census gave 4,369 as their number, and the apparent decrease is not due to biological factors. In the 2019 census, they numbered 47,006. Because of their language and their inter-locking settlements, many Sakuye must have given 'Boran' when asked for their 'tribe'

  • Die Sakuye sind eine Ethnie in der Nordostregion Kenias. Sie gingen aus Rendille hervor, die sich gemeinsam mit Angehörigen weiterer somaloider Gruppen mit den Borana-Oromo verbündeten. Ihre Sprache ist heute der Borana-Dialekt der Oromo-Sprache. Sie lebten traditionell als Kamelnomaden, sind jedoch zu einem großen Teil sesshaft geworden, seit der „Shifta-Krieg“ in den 1960er Jahren ihre Lebensgrundlagen beeinträchtigt hat. Sie zerfallen in eine südliche Gruppe im Distrikt Isiolo und eine nördliche um . Hatten sich bei der Volkszählung von 1969 noch 4369 Personen als Sakuye bezeichnet, gaben 1979 nur mehr 1824 diese ethnische Zugehörigkeit an. Wahrscheinlich bezeichneten sich damals zahlreiche Sakuye stattdessen als Borana. (de)

Their name comes from the name of one of the traditional divisions of Borana territory, Saaku, which is the area north of Marsabit. Thus, Saaku-ye means "from Saaku" or "of Saaku" in Afaan Booranaa. When a group of Rendille moved north from Marsabit, their Borana neighbors referred to them as the "Saakuye". (en)
