West Pokot Governor John Lonyangapuo’s convoy was attacked by police officers on the Kitale-Lodwar highway on Tuesday. Police reservist David Domungura and Lonyangapuo said the APs shot at the convoy to block West Pokot leaders from holding the meeting. Lonyangapuo accused the security officers of taking sides and lacking proper coordination. Lonyangapuo appealed to Turkana leaders and security agencies to return the stolen animals, and urged leaders to preach peace. Turkana County News social site has manufactured rumours and propaganda about the boundary issue,” he said.
