Banisa, also spelled Banissa, is a town in Mandera County in the north east of Kenya, and the headquarters of the Banissa sub-county are located in it. The census tables compiled by City Population place it in the former North Eastern Province and give it 14,974 inhabitants at the census of 24 August 2019; that table holds no earlier census figure for the town, so its recent growth cannot be traced from it. The English Wikipedia article on the town is short and states its county and its role as a sub-county seat, which is all that this first entry rests on.
