Elders and residents of Angata Barikoi on the border of Narok and Migori counties have united to call for an end to a long-standing conflict over the ownership of more than 4,000 acres of land. Community leaders have said that a proper survey of the land and the issuance of title deeds would help establish ownership and reduce conflict. “We are rooting for peaceful coexistence among members of the Maasai, Kipsigis and Kuria communities living along the border of Narok and Migori counties. People should be free to settle, do business and invest in the region without fear of attack or loss of property,” Mr Langat added. Mr Francis Ole Tomboi and Mr Charles Motatiro, the co-chairmen of the peace committee along the border of the two counties, have called for the implementation of the Tarime Peace Accord and the Awendo Peace Accord.
