The daughter of Isiolo’s colonial era senior chief Haji Galma Dido, who was killed during the Shifta war in June 1963, wants President Uhuru Kenyatta to help the family get justice.
The chief was killed in the line of duty with the first Isiolo district commissioner, Mr David Dabaso Wabera, on their way to Sericho to urge locals not to support secessionists and help survey a disputed piece of land.
