  • Since the April 20 attack, tension has been high in the area.
  • This has affected the peaceful coexistence between the Borana and Somali communities.
  • Mr Kamonde appealed to youths and residents not to be divided along tribal and clan lines.

Two people were on Tuesday evening killed while four others were seriously injured following a clash between two groups of herders from Isiolo and Garissa in Garbatulla on the border of the two counties.

A shootout ensued when the group from Garissa was approaching Kasa grazing field in Kinna which is used by the Isiolo herders intending to set up a camp in the area.
