A family in Transmara South sub-county demonstrated compliance with the government's initiative to curb illegal firearms by surrendering a gun in Narok County last Sunday. John Keiyua, a member of the family, presented a functional rifle with the serial number 38600/6974. The escalating tensions compelled the Narok county security team, under the leadership of County Commissioner Isaac Masinde, to organize a meeting with representatives of the two conflicting communities. The goal of this gathering was to develop a comprehensive set of solutions, key among them being the concerted effort to confiscate illegal firearms held by civilians. Early this year, Interior Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki asked persons holding illegal firearms to surrender them.
