Seven people are feared dead and seven others injured after raiders swept through 11 villages in Silale East Pokot, Baringo County stealing over 15,000 heads of cattle.
The attacked villages include; Choken, Kapetareng, Lonangii, Nadome, Kalvat, Apiding, Chepisya, Natalilo, Kogwitui and Nakwiadicho villages where locals are now fleeing their homes.
The locals who spoke to The Standard claimed that over
1000 heavily armed raiders laid an ambush in that village spraying bullets killing two people before making away with the livestock. Local leaders led by Silale MCA Nelson Lotela, condemned the incident and accused the government of laxity in responding to the distress calls from the affected locals four hours after the incident.
