Cabinet Secretary for Interior Prof Kithure Kindiki has said that security agencies have continued to register crucial successes in the war against violent livestock robbers terrorising communities in Northern Kenya.
“The government is committed to provide a firm policy framework for eradication of banditry, encouraging and rewarding security officers who demonstrate exceptional valour, risking their lives to ensure banditry threats are neutralized and stolen livestock is recovered,” he said at Mulango area in Isiolo county, adding, “conversely, security officers, public officials and opinion leaders of whatever description who facilitate banditry will face painful legal consequences”.
The CS witnessed the handover of over 200 camels stolen recently but recovered from bandits at Mulango Anti Stock Theft Unit (ASTU) Camp, Isiolo County.
Prof. Kithure further observed that the government welcomes the intention by Isiolo and Samburu County political leaders to assist in identification of persons suspected to be perpetrators of banditry and in the recovery of stolen livestock.
The CS was accompanied by among others; Regional, County and local security heads, Formation Field Commanders, Political Leaders and members of the public.
