The attacks come a few months after President Ruto promised Samburu locals that he would redeploy the revered Special Operations Group (SoG) to the region.
Locals enjoyed peace in Baragoi for more than two years for the first time in about three decades, but renewed attacks are threatening return to 'dark days.'
At least six people were on Tuesday shot dead and eight others seriously injured in a cattle raid in Baragoi, Samburu County.
Samburu North Deputy County Commissioner Samwel Mwangi confirmed the deaths, stating that police units have been deployed to restore calm in the region that appears to be slipping back to its dark history. Back in November 2012, more than 40 police officers and reservists were killed in Suguta Valley near Baragoi while on a mission to recover stolen cattle in what is widely known as the "Baragoi Massacre".
