He asked the Government to investigate the matter and not to assume it is normal cattle rustling which occasionally happens in the area. He argued that no animals were stolen during the incident contrary to media reports that more than 10,000 head of cattle had been stolen.

"We want this to be seen as a threat to the development of our community," he said.

Rift Valley PC Osman Warfa who toured the region accompanied by security officials ordered illegal communities out of the controversial PND land. "Investigations would be conducted to establish the legal owners," he said.

Other leaders who accompanied him were Laikipia West DC Javern Sagelo, Samburu DC Thomas Macheneri, Laikipia North DC Amos Mariba and their Pokot East counterpart Mutuku Mwanga.
