Kenya: Governor Samboja Grilled by DCI Over Herders Feud in Taita

Taita Taveta Governor Granton Samboja is currently being grilled at the DCI Headquarters in Nairobi.

The DCI asked Samboja to record a statement at its Nairobi Headquarters over the forceful removal of illegal camel herders coordinated by county government and security organs a month ago.

In a statement to the newsroom on Sunday, Taita Taveta communications boss Denis Onsarigo said Samboja had received a summons from detectives in relation to the long-standing grazing dispute.

“As a law-abiding citizen, the governor shall honour the summons and will appear before the DCI on Monday morning,” Onsarigo said.

Last month, a farmer was murdered in a cold blood by suspected camel herders at his farm in Kirumbi village when he barred the camel herders from grazing in his farm.
