Retired President Daniel arap Moi and Deputy President William Ruto have called on North Rift residents to live peacefully to ensure prosperity and economic development of the region.

The two leaders spoke less than a month after the Nadome killings where over 66 people died and a wave of continued cattle rustling and banditry that has adversely affected the pastoral communities in the region.
