The Laikipia County Assembly has passed a motion seeking to be involved in decisions made on the Kenya and United Kingdom (UK) military training agreement, saying the pact has had detrimental effects on its citizens over the years.

The motion moved by Segera Ward Representative Salim Edung and passed unanimously on Tuesday evening, wants the national government to consult with the county government before renewing its Defence Co-operation Agreement (DCA) with the UK.
