After a year-long lull in gunfire following a sustained security operation in Samburu County, bandits have returned, killing at least eight people in the past three weeks.
Just a day after ushering in the New Year, armed bandits ambushed a team of Kenya Power employees at Suyan on the Maralal -Baragoi Road, riddling their vehicle with bullets.
The five workers narrowly escaped unharmed.
This was the same spot where on December 13, 2024, a driver attached to the Samburu Governor survived with gunshot wounds after the governor's official vehicle was sprayed with bullets.
