The family of the Ng’orora 'hero' chief in Baringo, who was slain while helping repulse bandits, is crying for help. Thomas Roktok, 53, was killed during Deputy President William Ruto's political rally in Bartabwa, Baringo North sub county on February 23, 2017. However, the family has not been compensated, nor have other residents who lost loved ones and livestock to bandits. The ‘hero’ chief left behind three widows, who are peasant farmers, and 12 children. Kurgat said while her husband was still alive, he loved and cared for his family.
