Tension remains high in Ololoipangi, Narok South subcounty, after three people were seriously injured following a fresh flare up of violence between two warring communities on Friday night. Narok county police commander Thomas Ngeiywa said violence started when one cow was stolen by cattle rustlers, which prompted the other community to attack. That made them arm themselves and violence erupted between the two communities,” Ngeiywa said. “We have deployed heavy security and increased patrols to ensure normalcy returns to the troubled area,” Ngeiywa said. But during Jamhuri Day celebrations in Narok Stadium on Wednesday, Narok County Commissioner George Natembeya announced that the curfew has been lifted after peace returned to the area.
