KIAMBU: A border dispute between Kiambu and Murang'a counties has once again escalated after county askaris from the former allegedly attacked revenue clerks stationed in Jogoo Kimakia.

Daniel Kamau, one of the revenue clerks attacked, said Kiambu County askaris came in a convoy armed with clubs, and told them they were collecting levies in an area that belonged to Kiambu.
