Four more killed in Samburu as bandits continue to terrorise locals
2023-03-05
[NATION.AFRICA] Witnesses told the Nation.Africa that the criminals staged a daring broad-daylight attack and rubbed out the herders who were grazing in the Lolmolok grazing field.

"We are being killed in our land. Where else do we go? This is becoming worse because the bandidos are displacing us," said Boniface Lesuyai.

The two reportedly went titzup after sustaining severe gunshot wounds. The victims' bodies have been taken to the Samburu Referral Hospital Mortuary awaiting postmortem.

In another separate incident, armed bandidos raided Marti area in Samburu North in the wee hours of Saturday. They killed two children before driving away an unknown number of livestock.

According to locals, the daring bandidos drove the animals towards Moruakiring, an area believed to be their hideouts.

"We cannot live this way. Two innocent children have been killed even when the government is leading a security operation. What else can we say?" posed Joseph Ekutan, a resident in Marti.
