The situation in Baringo County has been deteriorating for some time, with the government doing its best to ensure that such incidents are kept to a minimum, with the Kenya Defense Forces and the National Police Service camping in the area. This morning, according to The Standard Newspaper, the Cabinet Secretary for Internal Security, Dr. Fred Matiang’i, has called for improved levels of security in the coming days following the national examinations.
This happened when students and teachers of Tot Mixed Day Secondary School were attacked by armed bandits as they were on their way home from a school trip. However, over the past month more schools in the region have been closed because of the information we currently have in our possession. The schools are:
Kapkechir Primary and Secondary School, Tuyotic Primary School and Secondary School, Karne Primary School and Secondary School, Kasiela Primary School, Sinoni Primary School and Secondary School.
