On Tuesday evening, tension remained high in Nguni ward in Mwingi Central subcounty, Kitui county as news was confirmed that a school going child was killed by alleged camel herders. Mwingi East subcounty police commander Boniface Kavoo confirmed the incident.
Nguni MCA Jeremiah Mutua issued an ultimate of 12 hours to government to solve the killing of the minor. He also took opportunity to urge residents to remain calm as government agencies investigate the horrendous incident.
"I got reports that camel herders invaded my residents in Katuni village near Mwanzele and killed a school going child. I am in work trip in Rwanda", said the legislator on a phone call.
Residents took to the streets of Mwingi and Nguni towns barricading roads in protest.
The young child's killing comes days after seven people were killed in Kwa Kamari Trading Centre in the neighboring Mwingi North subcounty.
