NCIC condemns Baringo violence

The National Cohesion and Integration Commission has condemned the conflict in parts of Baringo, Turkana and West Pokot.

Secretary Hassan Mohamed said the violence is triggered by reckless remarks made by some politicians.

“This has led to clashes in the area leading to deaths, injuries, massive destruction of property and displacement of families,” Mohamed said in a statement to newsrooms.

He said the violence is a major setback to the fragile peace that had been realised in the region.

“We wish to caution political leaders from these regions to desist from making inflammatory remarks and instead look for lasting solutions to the conflict,” Mohamed said.

He said the commission in partnership with other law enforcement agencies are monitoring the situation and will take action against any person inciting communities to violence.
