    "Remain highly vigilant and avoid public places in the next 24 – 48 hours," DFAIT posted on its website Sunday.Canada does not currently have any nationwide travel warnings for Kenya, although it does have two pre-existing travel advisories for areas heavily populated by Somalis - one of which is a district of Nairobi.DFAIT warns against "non-essential travel" to the Eastleigh neighbourhood of the Kenyan capital,Burlington police are looking for a man  about eight kilometres away from Westgate Mall.The area is often referred to as "Little Mogadishu" and it's estimated 250,000 Somali immigrants, refugees and their descendants live in the neighbourhood.Reuters reported Sunday there were fears in that community there could be retaliatory attacks because of the Westgate Mall siege.In November last year, angry mobs attacked shops and businesses in Little Mogadishu after a minibus bombing, blamed on al-Shabab killed nine people. A month later five people died when a grenade went off near an Eastleigh mosque.
  
    DFAIT has also advised Canadians against travel to areas within 150 kilometres of the border with Somalia, citing "a risk of kidnappings and attacks for issuing the advisory."That advisory covers areas in Northeasten Province, including Garissa County -where the church attacks occurred - and the Lamu district north of Pate Island.Garissa County is also home to the Dadaab refugee camp - the largest refugee camp in the world, according to UNHCR.The 21-year-old camp, made up of five settlement camps, is populated with nearly 386,000 Somali refugees who have fled violence and famine in Somalia.The 2012 church attacks that took place about 120 kilometres from Dadaab happened on the same day as four aid workers, including one from Canada, were released after three days in captivity.Several foreign tourists and aid workers have been kidnapped in the northeastern region of the country since 2011, when Kenya became involved in a multinational operation to help the Somali military combat Al-Shabab.
