A sombre mood engulfed Akongolone village of Igembe Central in Meru County on Monday during a requiem mass for four herders killed by bandits on December 10.

The four – Mutharimi Kathiori, Muriki Gichunge, Kimunga Kariti and Edward Muriki – were grazing their cattle when bandits believed to be from the neighbouring Isiolo County ambushed and shot them dead.
