By RUTH MBULAMore by this AuthorAt least 10 houses have been torched at Esoit on the Trans Mara West-Trans Mara East border in renewed fighting between the Kipsigis and Maasai communities. Trans Mara West Deputy County Commissioner Mericho Maina said the houses were set ablaze as the two communities fought on Tuesday and Wednesday night. He blamed the violence to robbery incidents in the area that have claimed the lives of two men from one of the communities. Mr Maina said a land tussle between the two communities and cattle rustling are also fuelling the fighting. They both reiterated the need for the two communities to co-exist peacefully, saying the underlying issues should be solved amicably.
