Nkararo-Enoreteet clashes: One more person killed as death toll rises to 4
Tensions remain high in Transmara, Narok
County, as another fatality was reported on Saturday morning, raising the death
toll to four.
The
border between Nkararo and Enoreteet also witnessed the destruction of a sugar
plantation.
Transmara
West sub-county Commander Jamleck Ngaruiya said that a collaborative effort
involving officers from GSU, RDU, AP, and ASTU is actively patrolling the
border to address the escalating situation.
The
ongoing clashes, now on the third day this week, involved the use of firearms,
resulting in an undisclosed number of casualties with arrow-inflicted
injuries.
Further,
three houses were torched in the recent attack. Concerned residents on both
sides of the border are urging Interior Cbainet Secretary Kithure Kindiki to
visit and restore calm.
Police
intelligence is pointing towards potential political involvement in the recent
clashes, further intensifying the need for intervention and resolution.
“Walifika
wakaua mtu tunahuzunika sana because these were promising youth that were
killed...polisi hawakuwa na inasikitishwa sana,” said a victim.
“Watoto wetu
wanakufa kila siku na tunasikia uchungu tunataka serikali ikue.”
